Spread the word! Submit now for the Neurobiology of Language Conference! November 10th-11th 2011, Annapolis, MD, USA The neurobiology of language is fast becoming a major concern for neuroscientists, as new methodological developments now allow a robust neuroscientific investigation of processes as complex as language. The third annual conference of the newly established Society for the Neurobiology of Language will present the current status of research into the neurobiology of language, at the crossroads of neuroscience, linguistics, and experimental psychology with a topical emphasis on the interactions among brain, behavior, and language. The conference boasts: special debate sessions where two leading experts go head to head in tackling timely and ?hot? topics in the field, keynotes featuring research aimed at broadening the scope of the neurolinguistic field, slide sessions highlighting the very best research, and plenty of possibilities for interaction. This interdisciplinary conference provides an annual opportunity to bring together researchers who are interested in the neurobiology of language, and offers a platform for junior and senior researchers to interact. The conference is being organized by the board of the Society for the Neurobiology of Language. Abstract submission is currently open and closes on June 25th. For more info on society, program, and venue, and to submit your abstract, see our website: www.neurolang.org We hope to welcome you in Annapolis! Vincent L.

Although there is a history of psychological studies of chess experts over the last 100 years, the underlying neural mechanism of intuitive best next-move generation is unknown. To reveal the neural basis, we used functional magnetic resonance imaging to study brain activity of professional and amateur players in the game of shogi (Japanese Chess). We found two activations specific to professionals: one in the precuneus of the parietal lobe during perception of board patterns, and the other in the caudate nucleus of the basal ganglia during quick generation of the best next move. Activities at these two sites covaried in relevant tasks. To elucidate that the involvement of the caudate head in their intuition has developed in the long-term training that the professionals had gone through, we trained novice subjects to play mini-shogi for a span of three months. We found activation of caudate nucleus in company with emergence of intuition in a subgroup of subjects, but not in the others. The further analysis reveals that the individual differences of the subjects in the development of cognitive intuition have a close relation with their anatomical structure of right caudate nucleus. Taken together, these results suggest that the precuneus-caudate circuit implements the automatic, yet complicated, processes of board-pattern perception and next-move generation in board game experts.
