Theoretical advances in language research and the availability of increasingly high-resolution experimental techniques in the cognitive neurosciences are profoundly changing how we investigate and conceive of the neural basis of speech and language processing. Recent work closely aligns language research with issues at the core of systems neuroscience, ranging from neurophysiological and neuroanatomic characterizations to questions about neural coding. Here we highlight, across different aspects of language processing (perception, production, sign language, meaning construction), new insights and approaches to the neurobiology of language, aiming to describe promising new areas of investigation in which the neurosciences intersect with linguistic research more closely than before. This paper summarizes in brief some of the issues that constitute the background for talks presented in a symposium at the Annual Meeting of the Society for Neuroscience. It is not a comprehensive review of any of the issues that are discussed in the symposium.
语言研究的理论进展和认知神经科学中日益提高的高分辨率实验技术正在深刻地改变我们研究和构想言语和语言处理的神经基础的方式。最近的工作将语言研究与系统神经科学的核心问题紧密地联系在一起，从神经生理学和神经解剖学的特征描述到关于神经编码的问题。在这里，我们在语言处理的不同方面（感知、产生、手语、意义构建）强调语言神经生物学的新见解和方法，旨在描述有前途的新研究领域，其中神经科学与语言学研究的交叉比以往更加紧密。本文简要总结了构成神经科学学会年会专题研讨会报告背景的一些问题。它不是对研讨会上讨论的任何问题的全面综述。
