Marie-Luise Lakmann

Marie-Luise Lakmann is a Researcher at the Institute for New Testament Textual Research, University of Münster, Germany, specializing in the digital edition of historically significant Greek New Testament manuscripts with text-critical apparatus development.

Her academic qualifications include:

• First State Examination (Secondary I/II) in Latin Philology, Greek Philology, and Educational Sciences from the University of Münster (1987)
• Doctorate (1993) with thesis "The Platonist Tauros in the Representation of Aulus Gellius" (Leiden, 1995)

Her research integrates New Testament textual criticism with ancient philosophical traditions, focusing on Greek manuscript analysis and Platonism's historical development. This dual expertise stems from her doctoral work and extensive involvement in the "Platonism in Antiquity" project.

She has maintained long-term affiliation with the University of Münster through research roles at the Institute of Classical Studies (1988-1998, 2000-2002) and the "Prosopographia Platonicorum" fellowship (1998-2000), currently contributing to digital humanities initiatives at the Institute for New Testament Textual Research.
