Anastasia Lada
Anastasia Lada
is a PhD candidate in Clinical and Experimental Linguistics at Vrije Universiteit Brussel (VUB), Belgium, and a member of the Brussels Centre for Language Studies (BCLS). She holds a BA in English Language and Literature and an MA in Linguistics, both obtained at the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Greece. Her research focuses on idiom comprehension across the lifespan, as well as in neurological and neurodegenerative conditions that affect language and cognition, such as post-stroke aphasia and Alzheimer’s disease. She has also contributed to research on child stuttering in the Global South. In addition, she has worked on the development of two idiom databases assessed for their lexico-semantic dimensions, one in Greek, and another one in Flemish Dutch. Her broader research interests include non-literal language processing in other clinical populations like autism and hemispheric differences in brain activation during idiom comprehension.
