👋 My name is Kathy Hämmerl. I am a PhD student at LMU Munich in Computational Linguistics, co-supervised by Alex Fraser and Jindřich Libovický (Charles University, Prague). My research interests are multilingual models, cross-lingual transfer, and how they function. I'm affiliated with and supported by the Munich Center for Machine Learning.

🌱 In my master's thesis at CIS, I already explored getting (more) language-neutral representations in multilingual encoder models.
