No other species on the planet uses language or writing — a mystery that remains unsolved even after thousands of years of research. Now neuroscientists are taking advantage of powerful new ways to peer into the brain to provide remarkable insights into this unique human ability.

Using powerful new research tools, scientists have begun to unravel the long-standing mystery of how the human brain processes and understands speech.
