We are an interdisciplinary lab based at Tufts University and the Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging at Massachusetts General Hospital. Our research integrates the fields of Cognitive Neuroscience, Psycholinguistics, and Cognitive science.
We are investigating the neural mechanisms mediating language comprehension and production in healthy adults. We are also interested in how these mechanisms break down in individuals with neuropsychiatric disorders such as schizophrenia. We use multimodal neuroimaging techniques – fMRI, MEG/EEG, and ERPs – to better understand the spatiotemporal dynamics of these processes in the brain.

Thank you to Dr. Baktash Babadi for inviting Gina to speak at the MGH Psychosis Clinical and Research Seminars at Massachusetts General Hospital. Gina's talk was titled, "GPT Reveals Selective Impairments in Global vs. Local Context Use in Speech among Treatment-Naive Patients with Positive Thought Disorder."
Trevor Brothers, Emily Morgan, Anthony Yacovone, and Gina Kuperberg have had their paper, "Multiple predictions during language comprehension: Friends, foes, or indifferent companions?" has been accepted for publication in Cognition. See PDF
