About MPI

 

The Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics is an institute of the German Max Planck Society. Our mission is to undertake basic research into the psychological,social and biological foundations of language. The goal is to understand how our minds and brains process language, how language interacts with other aspects of mind, and how we can learn languages of quite different types.

The institute is situated on the campus of the Radboud University. We participate in the Donders Institute for Brain, Cognition and Behaviour, and have particularly close ties to that institute's Centre for Cognitive Neuroimaging. We also participate in the Centre for Language Studies. A joint graduate school, the IMPRS in Language Sciences, links the Donders Institute, the CLS and the MPI.

CLARIN-NL kick-off meeting

On May 27, humanities researchers and technical specialists from the Netherlands gathered in Utrecht to give the green light to the CLARIN-NL project. As the national counterpart of the European CLARIN project, CLARIN-NL aims to make the vast amount of existing linguistic data and software on the internet available to a broad community of scholars.

CLARIN-NL kick-off meeting

The focus will be on the creation of user-friendly ways to find and access linguistic data on the internet. CLARIN will build easy to use interfaces to enable scholars without technical expertise to take advantage of these impressive resource and tool collections that are currently spread over multiple institutions – with just a few mouse clicks.

Grant of 9 million euro

The Dutch government will provide CLARIN-NL with a budget of  9 million euro for the period of 2009-2014. Twenty-four project partners, including the MPI for Psycholinguistics, will contribute to this multidisciplinary endeavour. The meeting in Utrecht will provide details on a call for proposals for demonstrator and resource curation projects.
