Fiona Weiss

Fiona Weiss has always been fascinated by language and therefore studied German and Latin for teaching at the University of Marburg. She then decided to stay in academia and wrote a doctoral thesis in the field of neurolinguistics. In her dissertation, she developed a cognitive model for predicting regressive eye movements during reading. After completing her PhD, she also completed her teaching degree with the 2nd state examination. Since 2019 she has been working as a Postdoc Reseacher (Akademische Rätin) at the University of Eichstätt, until summer 2024 she also worked as a teacher at a highschool in Ingolstadt. Her research primarily focusses on cognitive processing of language (L1 and L2) and reading.
