Attention and Interhemispheric Communication: Implications for Language Dominance (2022)
Journal Article
Serrien, D. J., & O'Regan, L. (2023). Attention and Interhemispheric Communication: Implications for Language Dominance. Neuroscience, 510, 21-31. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuroscience.2022.12.006

Dominance of the left hemisphere for language processing is a prominent feature of brain organisation. Whereas structural models clarify the functional asymmetry due to direct access to local language circuits, dynamic models propose functional state...

The interactive functional biases of manual, language and attention systems (2022)
Journal Article
Serrien, D. J., & O’Regan, L. (2022). The interactive functional biases of manual, language and attention systems. Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications / Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications - a SpringerOpen journal, 7(1), Article 20. https://doi.org/10.1186/s41235-022-00365-x

Hemispheric lateralisation is a fundamental principle of functional brain organisation. We studied two core cognitive functions - language and visuospatial attention - that typically lateralise in opposite cerebral hemispheres. In this work, we teste...
