Henriette Arndt, researcher in General Linguistics at Lund University and the LU Humanities Lab. She is a researcher and coordinator for LAMiNATE and the research programme TEAM (Transdisciplinary Approaches to Learning, Acquisition, Multilingualism). Her research focuses on how people use, and consequently learn, languages beyond the classroom, in their everyday lives, on– and offline. Her work also has strong methodological components, centering on the Experience Sampling Method and other intensive longitudinal methods for investigating language acquisition and use in situ.
Anna Flyman Mattsson, associate professor of Swedish as a second language at Lund University. Flyman Mattsson’s research deals with language acquisition in different ages, with a particular focus on grammatical development.
Sabine Gosselke Berthelsen, postdoctoral researcher in General Linguistics at Lund University. Gosselke Berthelsen works on speech perception in first and second language users and is particularly interested in the processing of prosody.
Jonas Granfeldt, professor of French linguistics at Lund University, leader of leader of LAMiNATE, and co-chair of the research programme TEAM (Transdisciplinary Approaches to
Learning, Acquisition, Multilingualism). Granfeldt has a wide interest in different modes of language acquisition, including comparative work on early bilingualism, child and adult L2 acquisition with a focus on morphosyntax and lexicon, but he also works in educational linguistics focusing on modern languages and foreign language policy.
Maria Graziano, associate professor of linguistics and pedagogical developer at Lund University Humanities Lab. Graziano’s research targets first language acquisition and multimodal communication (speech and gesture relationship) from a developmental and a cross-linguistic perspective. Between 2021 and 2023, Graziano served as coordinator of the research platform LAMiNATE.
Marianne Gullberg, professor of psycholinguistics at Lund University, director of the Lund University Humanities Lab, leader of LAMiNATE, and chair of the research programme TEAM (Transdisciplinary Approaches to
Learning, Acquisition, Multilingualism). Gullberg studies acquisition and real time language use in adult L2 and multilingual speakers, targeting semantics, discourse, and gesture production and comprehension.
Henrik Gyllstad, associate professor of English linguistics at Lund University. Gyllstad's main research interests focus on the lexical level of language. Specifically, his research topics are the multilingual mental lexicon, phraseology and formulaic language, vocabulary learning, testing and assessment, and lexical processing.

Victoria Johansson, professor in the Teaching and learning of Swedish at Kristianstad University. Johansson’s research interest includes language development through the lifespan with a particular focus on language production and cognitive aspects of writing.
Tomas Jungert, associate professor of psychology at Lund University. Jungert’s research interests are found in psychology and include work psychology, educational psychology, and social psychology and concern, for example, studies on motivation and school bullying.
Joyce Kling, senior lecturer of English studies at Lund University. Kling’s general research interests are in the integration of content and language, i.e. English-medium instruction, Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) and the international classroom, as well as language assessment and language teacher leadership and administration.

Tanja Kupisch, professor of Linguistics at Lund University. She works on bilingual child and adult language acquisition, trilingualism in childhood and adulthood, heritage language acquisition and bilectal acquisition as well as the links between bilingualism and language policies and between bilingualism and diachronic change.
Simone Löhndorf, senior lecturer of linguistics at Kristianstad University. Löhndorf’s main research interests are language development, semantics and semantic relations.
