Hyeon-Ae Jeon

Dr. Hyeon-Ae Jeon serves as an Associate Professor in the Department of Brain and Cognitive Sciences at Seoul National University, South Korea, focusing on neural and cognitive mechanisms underlying language acquisition and processing. Her work bridges theoretical linguistics with empirical neuroscience to advance understanding of human language development.

Her primary research domains include Second language acquisition, examining how individuals master non-native languages; Neurocognition of Language Learning, investigating brain plasticity during language education; and Neurocognition of Language Processing, analyzing real-time neural responses to linguistic stimuli. These areas converge in her affiliation with the Child Lab, which specializes in developmental language neuroscience with emphasis on pediatric populations.

Dr. Jeon maintains active institutional engagement through Seoul National University's Department of Brain and Cognitive Sciences, where she contributes to advancing cognitive science research methodologies and interdisciplinary collaboration in language neuroscience.
