The neurobiology of language is becoming a major concern for neuroscientists, as new methodological developments now allow a robust neuroscience of language. Language neuroscientists come from a broad spectrum of disciplines, and rarely, if ever, attend the same meetings. The neurobiology of language conference is an interdisciplinary conference that provides a unique opportunity to bring together junior and senior researchers to foster interaction, collaboration, and new approaches to understanding the neurobiology of language.
