UNESCOG investigates the organisation and functioning of the language and cognitive system while taking its biological substrate into account.Experimental
psychologists, neuropsychologists and electrophysiologists work on both normal and brain-damaged individuals in the following domains: audio-visual
interactions, auditory and visual attention, speech perception and recognition, reading disturbances, cognitive consequences of schooling, literacy and ageing,
organisation of the semantic system, retrieval of information from memory (in particular episodic and prospective), re-education of working memory,
impairments of executive functions and of social representations due to brain lesion. Besides experimental approaches from cognitive psychology and neuropsyclology,
UNESCOG's researchers employ methods of neuropsychological patient examination and of cerebral imagery (recording of evoked potentials and of hemodynamic
changes).
