"My research interests comprise the way we represent linguistic knowledge in our mind with an emphasis on how we learn, store, process and use the sound patterns of the languages we know, and how these patterns interact with other components of language such as sentence formation and meaning, as well as with domains outside language such as music."

"My research integrates concepts and state-of-the-art methods from urban ecology, geoinformatics and digital humanities to generate evidence-based knowledge to contribute to making more livable cities. I focus on the spatiotemporal characterization of the physical and social urban dimensions, aiming to unveil complex interconnections and counterintuitive relationships between humans and their main habitat: Cities."

"My main research interests are text linguistics and syntax. In text linguistics, I am particularly interested e.g. in how references to other texts (so-called intertextual references) work, but also in how new registers like memes develop and how language users can intuitively recognize their characteristic linguistic features. As far as syntax is concerned, I am fascinated by deviations from an expected default and the functions that these deviations can fulfil."
