The Brain and Mind Institute at The Chinese University of Hong KongThe Brain and Mind Institute at The Chinese University of Hong Kong is an interdisciplinary hub for conducting human-centered research related to the mind, brain and development. An important mission of the Institute is to develop evidence-based solutions to optimize development of Chinese children, especially those with special needs and those from low-resource settings. We published the first set of brain templates and atlases for Chinese infants between 0 to 3 months of age in 2024. Other ongoing projects include development of screening tools for autism and dyslexia in Chinese children, low-cost early intervention for children in low-resource settings, prenatal training and fetal brain development, and spoken language processing and learning. In 2025, we were awarded an Areas of Excellence project by the Research Grants Council of Hong Kong. |

Frontiers in Language SciencesFrontiers in Language Sciences is a pioneering multidisciplinary journal advancing the understanding of language acquisition, comprehension, production, and structure through formal, cognitive, and neurobiological perspectives. Led by our Field Chief Editor Manuel Carreiras (Basque Center on Cognition, Brain and Language), the journal spans all levels of language, from phonology to discourse, across monolingual, bilingual, and multilingual contexts. The Neurobiology of Language section, headed by Greig de Zubicaray (Queensland University of Technology), showcases cutting-edge research on the neural bases of language using techniques such as neuroimaging, brain stimulation, electrophysiology, and computational modeling in both healthy and clinical populations.

NCCR Evolving LanguageThe Swiss National Centre of Competence in Research (NCCR) Evolving Language is a nationwide interdisciplinary research consortium bringing together research groups from the humanities, from language and computer science, the social sciences, and the natural sciences at an unprecedented level. Together, we aim at solving one of humanity’s great mysteries: What is language? How did our species develop the capacity for linguistic expression, for processing language in the brain, and for consistently passing down new variations to the next generation? How will our capacity for language change in the face of digital communication and neuroengineering?

Brain & Language (Elsevier)Sponsor of the SNL Early Career Award and the new SNL Dissertation Award. An interdisciplinary journal, Brain & Language focuses on the neurobiological mechanisms underlying human language. The journal covers the large variety of modern techniques in cognitive neuroscience, including lesion-based approaches as well as functional and structural brain imaging, electrophysiology, cellular and molecular neurobiology, genetics, and computational modeling. All articles must relate to human language and be relevant to an elaboration of its neurobiological basis. Along with an emphasis on neurobiology, journal articles are expected to take into account relevant data and theoretical perspectives from psychology and linguistics.
|
 |
Language, Cognition & Neuroscience (Routledge)Sponsor of the SNL Distinguished Career Award. Language, Cognition & Neuroscience publishes high-quality papers taking an interdisciplinary approach to the study of brain and language, and promotes studies that integrate cognitive theoretical accounts of language and its neural bases. The Journal publishes both high quality, theoretically-motivated cognitive behavioural studies of language function, and papers which integrate cognitive theoretical accounts of language with its neurobiological foundations.
|
  |
Journal of Cognitive NeuroscienceSponsor of the SNL Travel Awards The Journal of Cognitive Neuroscience (JoCN) publishes research in the biological bases of mental events and behavior. JoCNForum is a non-peer-reviewed outlet sponsored by JoCN, providing a single archival platform for moderated discussion and debate of topics relevant to the conduct and dissemination of cognitive neuroscience research. |
