Julia Heine's research focuses on the cognitive mechanisms underlying language processing and learning.
After completing her B. A. in German Studies (Leipzig University) and an MPhil in Theoretical and Applied Linguistics (University of Cambridge), Julia wrote her PhD thesis on Embodied Semantics at the University of Cambridge. In addition to her psycholinguistic PhD project, Julia has also worked on an EEG project on statistical language learning at the Adaptive Brain Lab in Cambridge as well as on a project on second language syntactic processing at Charles University, Prague.
As a member of the EXREAN project at the Freie Universität Berlin, she applies experimental approaches to investigate the cognitive and social mechanisms underlying language change.
