First seen Jan 21, 2026 · Last updated May 22, 2026 · Updated 13 times

Summary

This study aims to understand how the brain processes language by recording brain activity from people with epilepsy who already have electrodes implanted for medical reasons. Researchers will compare these brain signals to computer models of language to see which models best match human brain activity. The goal is to learn more about the brain's language system, not to treat any condition.
