Recent projects include Language and Mental Health (investigating linguistic phenotypes in mental disorders) and UnCartesian Linguistics, which challenges Cartesian foundations in grammatical theory. His publications span top journals like Linguistics and Philosophy and Language Sciences, as well as edited volumes such as the Oxford Handbook of Determiners.

Dr Martin’s outreach includes graphic novels (e.g., Weimar. Temps incerts) and comic books (e.g., Scientia ex Machina) to popularize linguistics. He is also involved in traveling exhibitions like Talking Brains and Temps incerts, which examine language through art, science, and history.
