Dr Michal Láznička is a postdoctoral scholar in the Out of our Minds research group.

He holds a PhD in General Linguistics from Charles University, Prague. Michal is a cognitive linguist interested in the representation and processing of grammatical constructions. His primary focus is on language in aphasia, where he explores the ways in which usage-based construction grammar can contribute to a better understanding of the condition.

Michal joins OOOMinds as a postdoctoral research fellow on a Johannes Amos Comenius project Language in Aphasia with Naïve Discriminative Learning, where he combines learning theory and usage-based linguistics to study inflectional morphology in Czech speakers with aphasia.
