Carsten Eulitz

Carsten Eulitz is a Professor for General Linguistics/Neurolinguistics at the University of Konstanz's Department of Linguistics. He holds leadership roles including Head of the Department of Linguistics (since 2018), former Vice-Rector for Academics (2007–2009), and has served on numerous university committees. His research focuses on the cognitive neuroscience of language, particularly auditory phonetics, neurophonology, and the neurobiological basis of language processing using EEG, MEG, and fMRI. He explores lexical representation, speech perception, and syntactic/semantic integration in both healthy and clinical populations.

Education includes a Habilitation in Psychology (University of Konstanz, 1999), an M.D. from Humboldt University (1991), and postdoctoral training in neuropsychiatry and experimental audiology. His work investigates how language processing is organized in the brain, with studies on morphological complexity, prosody, and bilingualism. Key contributions include insights into the underspecification of phonological features in lexical representations and neural mechanisms underlying speech comprehension.

His articles (e.g., on ERP and MEG studies, semantic decomposition in compounds) reveal a focus on neural correlates of linguistic structure and real-time processing. Awards section remains empty as none were explicitly mentioned. He has advised no listed students, but his roles in academic leadership and research centers (e.g., Lurija Institute of Rehabilitation Science) indicate involvement in training and institutional development.
