Very interesting to see how language processing from very distinct languages activates diff parts of the brain, prob influencing our perspectives and thoughts. I wonder how cultural differences contribute and what about bilingual people from similar/very diff root languages. – at Eindhoven, Nederland

🔴El ciberatac que ha rebut el #CLÍNIC afecta l'activitat habitual: s'han suspès 1⃣5⃣0⃣intervencions i 2⃣.5⃣0⃣0⃣ consultes externes.
