Clemens Steiner-Mayr is a Senior Researcher specializing in semantics and pragmatics, with a focus on interrogative embedding and presupposition projection. He has led the DFG project SemConIE - Semantic constraints on interrogative embedding and participated in the DAAD project ETAPS - Experimental and Theoretical Advances in Pragmatics and Semantics.

• Research Areas: Semantics, Pragmatics, Interrogative Embedding, Presupposition Projection, Scalar Implicatures

His work examines how logical constraints influence question embedding, redundancy in local contexts, and the interplay between focus and exhaustification in quantificational environments. He has presented at major workshops including Sinn und Bedeutung, SALT, GLOW, and NELS, collaborating with scholars like Jacopo Romoli, Uli Sauerland, and Karolina Zuchewicz.
