On July 8th 2026 Emil Rosina defended their thesis “Memory Reports”. Emil worked together with Kristina Liefke on project P10 of the FOR 2812 and was a consistent contributer to the BBMA Girls' Day that took place in Berlin. Currently Emil is a postdoctoral fellow at Masaryk University, Czech Republic.
Read the results from Emil's and Kristina's work which investiges whether speakers use different linguistic means to report memories of personally experienced events and memories of general facts:

The research unit FOR 2812 "Constructing scenarios of the past: A new framework in episodic memory" is a project funded by the German Research Foundation (Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft, DFG). The research unit studies the cognitive and neuronal mechanisms underlying scenario construction in episodic memory. We employ and integrate approaches from Philosophy, Psychology, and Experimental and Computational Neuroscience.
