Panos Athanasopoulos is a Professor of English Studies at Lund University, actively engaged in the LAMiNATE (Language Acquisition, Multilingualism, Teaching) Researcher profile area. His research spans experimental cognitive linguistics, psycholinguistics, linguistic relativity, bilingual cognition, and language acquisition. Key questions guiding his work include the extent to which speakers of different languages think and perceive the world differently, and how learning an additional language can transform these perceptions. Recent research programs have explored the effects of time metaphors on time perception, the relationship between grammatical aspect and event representation, as well as the impact of grammatical gender on object perception. His breadth of research contributes to understanding the intersection of language and cognition, providing insights into how linguistic variables influence human cognitive processes.
