Georgios P. Georgiou

I am a psycholinguist investigating how speech and language can be leveraged to advance our understanding of second language acquisition and neurological conditions, with the goal of informing educational and clinical support, respectively. My work is grounded in the interface of linguistics and other fields, such as artificial intelligence, cognitive science, and clinical neurology.

My research focuses on the development of predictive frameworks to better model second language speech and language in typically developing individuals and to optimize learning outcomes. In parallel, it focuses on the design of computational approaches — particularly machine learning and interpretable modeling — to support the automatic detection, assessment, and monitoring of neurodevelopmental and neurodegenerative conditions, using speech- and language-based features. At its core, my interdisciplinary research program aims to generate real-world impact by informing effective interventions in educational and clinical practice.
