Profile Articles

I am a historical linguist specialising on the Indo-European language family. I am employed as Associate Professor at Leiden University Centre for Linguistics and as Professor with special responsibilities at the Copenhagen University Department of Nordic Studies and Linguistics.

Etymology, reconstruction and phylogenetics as well as the study of prehistoric language contact and language dispersals are among my professional focuses. I have led multiple externally funded research projects, including an ERC Starting Grant project and a NWO PhDs in the Humanities project.

I have been the supervisor of several dissertations on different Indo-European branches, including Italic, Balto-Slavic, Armenian and Indo-Iranian. As a frequent collaborator on interdisciplinary publications with prehistoric archaeologists and palaeogeneticists, I am working on developing new interfaces across the study of human prehistory.
