2nd International School on Psycholinguistics, Neurolinguistics and Clinical Linguistics
Oct 30, 2021

From 25th to 29th October I attended online the 2nd International School on Psycholinguistics, Neurolinguistics and Clinical Linguistics, by the University of Novi Sad, Serbia. It was the school I enjoyed the most, not only because its focus was on neurocognitive foundations of language (an area that I am deeply interested in and I constantly try to learn more about so as to eventually focus on it in my research), but also because the courses were very well-structured. It also helped me explore linguistic complexity further, which is partly one of my research areas at the moment.
