Head of the Center
Dorota Klimek-Jankowska (dorota.klimek-jankowska@uwr.edu.pl) is a director of the Center for Experimental Research on Natural Language (consisting of an EEG and an eye-tracking lab). She is a faculty member at the Department of English and Comparative Linguistics, the Institute of English Studies, University of Wrocław and also a member of the Center for Corpus and Experimental Research on Slavic and Baltic languages „Slavicus”. She is also a Principal Investigator at the SONATA BIS-11 grant from the National Science Center in Poland (2021/42/E/HS2/00143). The title of the project is From a multilingual parallel corpus to the micro-typology of the PERFECT in Baltic and Slavic. Her main interests are syntax-semantics interface, formal semantics, semantic micro-typology of Slavic languages and psycholinguistics with the main focus on the organization of human linguistic knowledge and its interaction with other cognitive systems in the brain.

dr Alberto Frasson
Alberto Frasson (alberto.frasson@uwr.edu.pl) is a postdoctoral researcher in Linguistics at the Slavicus Research Centre at the University of Wroclaw. He holds a PhD in Linguistics from the University of Utrecht and specializes in theoretical syntax and heritage languages. His theoretical research interests include the syntax of noun phrases, agreement and embedded clauses at the syntax-semantics interface. He conducted fieldworks in Europe and South America, focusing on the documentation of heritage languages in multilingual settings. He is a founding member of the Heritage Language Syntax platform; his research has been published in international journals like “Glossa”, “Languages” and “Heritage Language Journal”.
dr Piotr Gulgowski
Piotr Gulgowski (piotr.gulgowski@uwr.edu.pl) is a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Wrocław, currently involved in a project investigating implicit biases in foreign accented speech perception (Granitus/Attit) and various research activities at the Ronald lab. He is interested in all things psycho- and neurolinguistic, with a special interest in the processing of morphological structure, the timing of lexical access and the role of different memory systems in language use. He is always keen to learn new experimental techniques and data analysis skills. He has several years of practical experience in laboratory research working with various experimental techniques, including questionnaire studies, reaction time measures, eye-tracking and EEG. He has designed and run experiments using tools like PsychoPy and SR Research Experiment Builder and wrestled with data using R Studio.
dr Krzysztof Hwaszcz
Krzysztof Hwaszcz (krzysztof.hwaszcz@uwr.edu.pl) works as an adjunct professor at University of Wrocław. His main research areas involve syntax-semantics interface, mental lexicon, corpus linguistics, digital humanities, phonetics and phonology and syntax in the theoretical perspective. Krzysztof wrote his PhD dissertation on the processing of compound words and the organization of the mental lexicon. He is also employed as scientific users’ coordinator at Wrocław University of Science and Technology in the CLARIN consortium. He has also completed an internship as a post-doctoral researcher at Adam Mickiewicz University where he conducted research on multilingualism.
dr Hanna Kędzierska
Hanna Kędzierska (hanna.kedzierska2@uwr.edu.pl) defended her PhD dissertation on the processing of foreign-accented speech at the University of Wrocław. She then worked as a post-doctoral researcher at Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznań, where she used the event-related brain potentials method to investigate phonemic contrast perception by multilingual speakers. Her main research interests include psycho- and neurolinguistics as well as multilingual language processing. She has published papers in such journals as „Frontiers in Psychology”, „Linguistics Vanguard” and „Zeitschrift für Slawistik” and presented at several scientific conferences. In her free time, Hanna enjoys hiking, travelling, and exercising.
mgr Wojciech Milczarski
