Antje Meyer is a Professor at Radboud University and Director of the Department of Psychology of Language at the Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics. Her work bridges experimental psychology and psycholinguistics, focusing on the cognitive mechanisms underlying language production.

Her research interests include:

• Word and sentence production
• Visual-conceptual and linguistic processing interactions
• Relationships between language comprehension and production
• Origins of individual differences in linguistic skills among adults

Meyer emphasizes inclusive research methodologies by engaging participants from diverse sociodemographic backgrounds, moving beyond the traditional use of student populations in psycholinguistic experiments. This approach enhances the generalizability of findings and promotes public understanding of science.

She holds a leadership role in one of the world’s premier research institutes in language sciences and continues to advance empirical research in adult language processing.
