Excited to present some new computational research on dynamic neural fields and phonological representation at #labphon19 this week!

Now that Ultrafest XI in Aixu has come to a close, we're really excited to announce that we will be hosting the next edition at Université Paris Cité! Check out our promo video for more! #ultrafest #ultrasound #phonetics Phonetics & more @Univ_Paris Université Paris Cité youtu.be/_ziKtgBQYFs?si…

Awesome first day of #labphon19 with our satellite workshop on “Variance and Invariance in Phonological Representation”. So much fun getting to hear and talk about articulation, phonology, modelling and dynamical systems with a dream panel!

Busy week for Lancaster University Phonetics Lab Linguistics and English Language, Lancaster Uni colleagues! NEW10 Northern Englishes Workshop we've had talks from Danielle, Claire Nance, Pamela Forster, and met up with lab alumna Xinyi Zhao. Thanks for hosting us UoC English!

We had a great time at last night’s Lancaster University Phonetics Lab end-of-year party!

So proud to have two PhD students graduating today - congratulations Andrea Siem and Bahar Aksu! 🎉 Lancaster University Phonetics Lab Linguistics and English Language, Lancaster Uni

Graduation day with @phoneticslab Linguistics and English Language, Lancaster Uni!

We did a paper on why people everwhere seem to agree that cats say "meow". Interestingly, it seems to be due to the jaw and small stature of cats. ResearchGate: researchgate.net/publication/38…

Morpho-phonetics: our new approach to studying the biological evolution of speech sounds. Take a look at our manuscript: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Spending most of my days recently visualising nullclines of vector fields. Here's a nice example where I re-created the qualitative dynamics from Iskarous et al. 2024 model of F0 (below). Discrete phonological behaviours emerge from change in k #complexsystems #dynamicalsystems

Funding alert! Applied for a Marie Curie but got rejected with *Seal of Excellence* < 2 years ago? MUR is offering 150 very generous positions for 3-years senior postdocs! If interested in any of my research areas & want to join my lab Sapienza Università di Roma - Italy, send me an email!

My #charisma project Politics of Inequality found its way into the German media! We talked to the renowned Spiegel about political charisma across languages and cultures: spiegel.de/wissenschaft/m…

This is my favourite dynamics plot I've made so far this week. The three colours correspond to different numbers of stable equilibria in the system - non-linearity is beautiful!

This paper is now accepted in Journal of Phonetics 🥳 A thread 🧵 1/7

Sad to be missing #INTERSPEECH2024 but Daniel Friedrichs will be presenting our paper on Weds! ➡️ Temporal co-registration of simultaneous EMA and EEG for precise articulatory and neural data alignment ⏰ Weds, 15:10-15:30 📍Panacea Amphitheater Steven Moran Mónica Lancheros

🚨 New Paper Alert! 🚨 Lena Pagel, Simon Roessig and Doris Mücke just published a paper in Laboratory Phonology on articulatory signatures of prosodic prominence in habitual and loud speech. Check it out here: journal-labphon.org/article/id/109…!

Work anniversary 1️⃣! Super grateful to my colleagues for getting me through my first year. Excited about the opportunities in the year ahead, especially welcoming the first cohort of MSc FLiSS!
