She earned her PhD in 1996 in Altaic and Chinese Linguistics at the University of Washington,[3] and was a Humboldt postdoctoral research fellow and Volkswagen-DOBES grantee at the Johannes Gutenberg-Universität Mainz. She has also published pedagogical and linguistic materials for the Uyghur language.[4]

Her research is notable in arguing for the areal significance of Chinese Inner Asia as a

Open Access and language ideology.[5] In 2014, her work led to her being named a Fellow of the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation.[6][7]

Dwyer received NSF funding for and directed Institute on Collaborative Language Research (CoLang 2012), inviting Carlos Nash to be co-director.[8][9] CoLang is an international training workshop in in situ language documentation supported by the National Science Foundation, convening in even years.[10]

Since 2010, her collaborative work has focused on sharing analyzed language resources, including a pilot website Interactive Inner Asia,

Chaghatay/early modern Uyghur language texts, with a focus on cultural and linguistic analysis of medical manuscripts, and social network analysis
