Professor of Multilingualism at the University of Konstanz and at the University of Reading and Director of the Center for Multilingualism at the University of Konstanz. My research focuses on language acquisition and processing across populations of typically and atypically developing learners and aims to uncover the nature of language processing in typical and atypical language development. I am currently leading the EU project 'MultiMind' that provides multi-disciplinary training on multilingualism to early stage researchers in Europe.
