Schiller, German by birth, completed his studies in 1994 in Trier, his specialist subjects being computer linguistics, German studies and phonetics.   He completed his doctoral research at the renowned Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics in Nijmegen, under the supervision of Pim Levelt, the father of Dutch psycholinguistics.  Schiller: ‘When I started, I was more of a linguist than a psychologist.  Now it's the other way round.'
