I have a post-doc position in the Institute for Logic, Language and Computation (ILLC), University of Amsterdam. My main interest is in language and cognition, in particular the psycholinguistics of semantics and pragmatics, and the cognitive basis of semantic and pragmatic concepts. My research stresses empirical approaches to evaluating the basis of formal semantic distinctions, concentrating on empirical work with large corpora, converged with experimental approaches, including surveys of acceptability judgments, as well as imaging techniques, to test implications of my research, in collaboration with experts.
