Lab members
Laurie runs the meetings and keeps an eye on the lab. She has been accused of being a 'vicious' editor of drafts, has been known to agree to too many projects, and generally gives out too much work.
With her background in translation, Fiona approaches language processing and bilingualism from a novel angle. It is rumoured she speaks at least 15 unrelated languages.
Researching gendered language use and stereotypes in Mandarin Chinese, Xiaoduan's interests span psycholinguistics and sociolinguistics. She can be counted on to remind her lab-mates reading can be more 'radical' than we might think.
Currently working on language disorders in bilingual Spanish-English children, Stephanie excels at finding and testing an astonishing number of participants.
Bridging the gulf between formal semantics and sentence processing research, Fate can clear a room with just two words: "Situation models".
Working on language attrition and heritage language speakers, Inma is the lab expert in eye-tracking and making eye-wateringly complicated models.
