Sol Lago

Sol Lago is an Associate Professor at Goethe University Frankfurt within the Institute for Romance Languages and Literature. Her research focuses on sentence comprehension in first and second language speakers, particularly investigating cognitive processes in multilingual contexts. She leads the Romance Lab, studying Romance languages (Spanish, French, Portuguese, Italian) through behavioral, eye-tracking, and neurophysiological methods. She holds a Ph.D. in Linguistics from the University of Maryland (2014) and a B.A. in Literature and Linguistics from the University of Buenos Aires (2009).

Her research interests include psycholinguistics, second language processing, and multilingualism. Key projects involve the AGREE project on agreement processing, the collaborative CRC NegLaB studying negation, and experimental work on possessive pronouns and clitic doubling. Recent methodologies include EEG and computational modeling using Large Language Models and virtual reality.

Her publications reflect a focus on syntactic processing, agreement attraction, and bilingualism. Collaborations with researchers like Shravan Vasishth and João Veríssimo strengthen her interdisciplinary approach. Current initiatives aim to enhance language learning pedagogy through experimental findings.
