Over the past two decades, the scientific study of language processing has made non-negligible advances and embraced substantial changes in the research paradigm. New techniques and methodologies have enabled and facilitated the abilities to more accurately localize the sub-processes of language, to track cognitive and neural response changes over time in natural processing, to decode the information content and structure of language during comprehension, and to characterize both the commonality and the individual differences in cognitive mechanisms and neural substrates underlying language processing. This editorial initiative is focused on new insights, novel developments, current challenges, latest discoveries, recent advances, and future perspectives in the field of Language Processing. High-quality original research manuscripts on novel concepts, problems and approaches are also welcomed.
This Research Topic solicits brief, forward-looking contributions from the editorial board members that describe the state of the art, outlining recent development and major accomplishments that have been achieved and that need to occur to move the field forward. Authors are encouraged to identify the greatest challenges in their sub-disciplines, and how to address those challenges.
The goal of this inaugural Research Topic is to shed light on the progress made in understanding the cognitive and neural mechanisms and the nature of human language processing and on its future challenges, to provide an overview of the state of the art in this area of research. This article collection will inspire, inform, and provide direction and guidance to researchers in the field.
Important Note: All contributions to this Research Topic must be within the scope of the section and journal to which they are submitted, as defined in their mission statements. Frontiers reserves the right to guide an out-of-scope manuscript to a more suitable section or journal at any stage of peer review.
