Aleksandra Ćwiek earned her BA and MA from Bielefeld University, Bielefeld, Germany, where her area of specializa- tion was acoustic phonetics and her PhD from the Humboldt University of Berlin, Germany. During her PhD, she worked at the Leibniz-Centre General Linguistics in Berlin on iconicity in language. In late 2022, she will start a postdoc fellowship at Radboud University, Nijmegen, The Netherlands, where she will continue her research on iconicity and multimodality. Aleksandra’s research interests are iconicity, sound symbol- ism, multimodality, cognition, and language evolution. Slocombe, K. E., Waller, B. M., and Liebal, K. (2011).
