Subject
I did my PhD at the IMS (University of Stuttgart) working together with Sabine Schulte im Walde on automatic detection of lexical semantic change. I held a PhD scholarship from Konrad Adenauer Foundation. After my PhD I did a research internship with Katrin Erk at the University of Texas, Austin. Since February 2022 I am a post-doctoral researcher at the IMS (University of Stuttgart) working in the 6-year research program Change is Key!.
