Juliana Novo Gomes is an Assistant Professor at the Faculdade de Letras of the Universidade do Porto (FLUP) and an integrated researcher at the Centre for Linguistics of the University of Porto (CLUP) since 2022. Her research lies at the interface between Theoretical Linguistics (Generative Syntax and Semantics) and Psycholinguistics/Neuroscience of Language. She holds a Ph.D. in Linguistics from the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ), with a doctoral research internship at the University of Colorado Boulder, and completed post-doctoral fellowships in Phrasal Syntactic Structure Processing in Portuguese and English also at the University of Colorado Boulder. She was an FCT Research Fellow (CEECIND) at the Centre for Humanistic Studies of the University of Minho (CEHUM/2020–2022), Visiting Professor of Experimental Syntax at the Federal University of Paraíba (UFPB/2018–2020), and Adjunct Professor of Syntax at the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ/2008–2010, 2015–2017). Her scientific activity focuses on the theoretical description and neurocognitive characterization of syntactic processing mechanisms, language architecture, and lexical access in interface studies with related fields (first and second language acquisition, learning difficulties, and educational theories). She conducts advanced research on complex sentence syntax, anaphoric phenomena, semantic illusions, syntactic-semantic relations, L1/L2 acquisition, learning theories, and graphemic decoding. She is proficient in cutting-edge experimental and computational methodologies, including Electroencephalography/Event-Related Potentials (EEG/ERPs), Eye-tracking, Self-Paced Reading (PCIBex, Cognition, and Gorilla platforms), as well as statistical modeling and applied programming (R and Python). She has a strong track record of international leadership, scientific governance, and coordination of competitively funded projects (FCT, CNPq, CAPES, FAPEMIG, CÁTEDRA Camões). Notable roles include serving on boards and scientific committees, such as the current President of the International Society of Applied Psycholinguistics (ISAPL) and President of the Psycholinguistics and Neuroscience of Language Committee of the Brazilian Linguistics Association (ABRALIN, 2020–2022). She has an extensive publication record in high-impact journals and academic presses (Cambridge University Press, Frontiers in Neuroscience, Language and Cognition, Linguistic Approaches to Bilingualism, Isogloss, Applied Psycholinguistics). In teaching and academic management, she possesses extensive higher education experience in lecturing and coordinating undergraduate, master's, and doctoral courses in Syntax, Portuguese Syntax, Descriptive Linguistics 1 and 2, Academic Writing and Research Methodologies, Introduction to Linguistics, Psycholinguistics, Language Acquisition, Language and Cognition, and Research Methodologies. She also brings solid experience in supervising funded international post-doctoral researchers, advising master's theses and doctoral dissertations, serving on international academic examination boards, and managing research laboratories in Theoretical and Experimental Linguistics.
