Welcome!

The LLCN studies languages and the deaf and hearing people who use them to ask the following questions: What is universal about human language? How is signing different from speaking? Does the language you use affect how you think? Is the deaf, signing brain different from the hearing, speaking brain? How does the brain recognize the difference between gesture and sign language? What is the nature of the bimodal bilingual brain?
