A problem with this diversity is that they often differ, among other things, in context, platform, sampling process, collection strategy, and labeling schema. Ther…

The question of identifying the properties of language that are specific human linguistic abilities, i.e., Universal Grammar, lies at the center of linguistic research. This paper argues for a largely Emergent Grammar in phonology, taking as the starting point that memory, categorization, attention to frequency, and th…

The Japanese Society of Neurology, founded in 1960, gained momentum after the 12th World Congress of Neurology held in Kyoto (1981) and currently enjoys an indisputable reputation as a major contributor in the field of neuroscience. Clinical training, however, has fallen behind research achievements with a shortage of…

INTRODUCTION: Consistent urologic oncology follow-up after radical cystectomy (RC) improves survival. However, there is scarce literature describing postoperative communication. We aimed to identify differences in postoperative communication patterns and healthcare utilization among English-speaking patients (ESPs) and…

Gray matter has been shown to be greater in early bilingual adults relative to monolingual adults in regions associated with language (Mechelli et al., 2004), and executive control (EC; Olulade et al., 2016). It is not known, however, if language experience-dependent differences in gray matter volume (GMV) exist in chi…
