Martina Werner is a Senior Postdoc and Research Fellow at the Austrian Centre for Digital Humanities (ÖAW), affiliated with the Institute of German Studies at the University of Vienna's Faculty of Philology and Cultural Studies. She holds a habilitation in German Linguistics from the University of Vienna (2019) and a PhD from LMU Munich (2009). Her academic appointments include visiting professorships at Universität Würzburg (2024–2025) and LMU Munich (2019–2020), along with a guest professorship at the University of Vienna (2017/2018). Research Focus: Werner specializes in morphology, historical linguistics, and corpus-based approaches. Her work explores grammar theory, language change, syntax-morphology interfaces, and digital humanities methodologies. Current projects include FWF-funded research on relational adjectives in historical German (RAHiG) and the diachrony of nominalized infinitives. Publication Trends: Her recent articles (2016–2025) predominantly analyze diachronic morphology in German, focusing on nominalization patterns, compound structures, and suffix evolution. Corpus linguistics methodologies underpin her investigations into grammaticalization, language variation, and comparative Germanic linguistics. A strong interdisciplinary thread connects linguistic theory with empirical data analysis.
