🚨 New paper alert!

🧠 Our own Swarnendu and Linnaea, with their collaborator Dustin, present this MEG study of word length in Bangla

How long is long? Word length effects in reading correspond to minimal graphemic units: An MEG study in Bangla This paper presents a magnetoencephalography (MEG) study on reading in Bangla, an east Indo-Aryan language predominantly written in an abugida script. The study aims to uncover how visual stimuli are ...

Swarnendu Moitra, Linnaea Stockall's and my first official, no-foolin' neurolinguistics publication is finally published and officially out! I'm fairly certain that this is the first MEG study published about Bengali too!

(A) The Bengali word 'klanto' is written, showing 3 different ways that word length can be quantified. (B) These are inter-correlated, but distinct. (C) Brain activity in left fusiform gyrus correlates with number of smallest units, and possibly? phonemes

A (slightly) revised version of
@swarmoi.bsky.social's, Linnaea Stockall's and my paper on early neural responses in Bangla orthographic processing. Bangla script involves complex letters with ≥1 part. Brain activity around 130-150ms from left fusiform gyrus correlates w/ smallest units
