Mirjana Bozic

Associate Professor

Department of Psychology, University of Cambridge

Mirjana Bozic is Fellow and Director of Studies for Psychological and Behavioural Sciences at King's College, Cambridge. She is a cognitive neuroscientist who studies language processing. She uses different behavioural and neuroimaging techniques to investigate how the underlying neurocognitive systems support and constrain language comprehension; how these systems may have evolved; and how our brains adapt to the requirements of learning and using multiple languages.
