The pilot episode of Beyond Brainwaves (formerly known as the Brainwaves Podcast) explores the relationship between language, memory systems, and aging. In this episode, Spurti speaks with Dr. Michael Ullman, a Professor at Georgetown University, with primary appointments in the Department of Neuroscience and secondary appointments in the Departments of Neurology, Linguistics, and Psychology. He is also the director of the Brain and Language Lab at Georgetown University. Dr. Ullman's proposal of the Declarative/Procedural Model of Language (2001) changed how the fields of cognitive neuroscience and linguistics view language acquisition, learning, and development.
If you're interested in learning how language and memory are related and whether it's possible to optimize your own language-learning experience, tune in to this conversation with Spurti Vemuri and Dr. Ullman!
