Artemis Alexiadou (Άρτεμις Αλεξιάδου, born 13 February 1969 in Volos) is a Greek linguist active in syntax research working in Germany. She is professor of English linguistics ^[1] at the Humboldt University of Berlin.

Alexiadou began her studies in Linguistics at the age of 17 at the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens. After graduating in 1990, Alexiadou undertook a master's degree at the University of Reading and then continued on to the Zentrum für Allgemeine Sprachwissenschaft in Berlin. In 1994 Alexiadou gained a PhD from the University of Potsdam and also passed her Habilitation there in 1999.^[2]

After gaining a habilitation, Alexiadou researched at MIT, Princeton University and the University of Pennsylvania on a Heisenberg fellowship^[3] and was guest professor in Tübingen and Potsdam. From 2002 until 2015 Alexiadou was Professor for theoretical and English linguistics and head of the Institute of Linguistics at the University of Stuttgart and also the project "Sonderforschungsbereich 732". Since 2015 Alexiadou has been professor for English linguistics at the Humboldt University of Berlin; in 2022 she became director of the Leibniz-Zentrum für Allgemeine Sprachwissenschaft.^[4]

Alexiadou is an important representative of generative grammar in Europe and was president of the association "Generative Linguistics in the Old World" (GLOW) from 2005 until 2009. Most notably, she has written multiple seminal works on several topics in syntax. Alexiadou is especially known for her work and expertise on the syntactic structure of the noun phrase, adverbs, voice and roots.

In 2014, she was awarded the Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz Prize, and in the same year, she was elected a member of the German National Academy of Sciences Leopoldina.^[5] In 2016, the Norwegian University of Science and Technology awarded Alexiadou an honorary doctorate.^[6] She is a member of the Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters.^[7]
