Current project and interests

My scientific interests include English linguistics, Legal language, theory of state and law, comparative law.

I am very interested in interdisciplinary research that is why my current research includes my previous educational background. In my doctoral project I focus more on a corpus-based study of linguistic features of British legal texts before and after Brexit. 

Now I am very excited to get in touch with researchers from other disciplines and from all over the world through the HGGS. I would like to share discussions, receive feedback from other PhD students, at the same time take part in external events, and improve my interdisciplinary skills.
