At the JEONG Lab, we investigate how people learn and use multiple languages, and how the brain supports these processes. Using neuroimaging techniques such as fMRI and behavioral experiments, we explore how memory, emotion, and social interaction influence language.
We also aim to uncover, from both neurocognitive and social perspectives, the mechanisms by which individuals learn languages, communicate, and make multilingual and culturally grounded behavioral choices in diverse and international contexts.

202503.10 Mapping visceral language in the brain: a functional neuroimaging study (Oral Workshop) Posted in Presentation

We all know emotion heavily depends on the sensations from within our body but much less is known as to how other cognitive domains such as Language interact with our embodied emotions. In this study, we investigate the neural basis upon which Language can link the psychological to the somatic by functionally mapping visceral language (e.g., 'heart fell apart', 'stomach turned over') in the brain.  Hyoungsun Kim, student of Graduate School of International Cultural Studies presented the findings at the 5th GP-DS Data Science Cafe and gathered new perspectives from data science researchers.
