Jonathan David Bobaljik is a leading linguist whose research spans formal syntax, phonology, and the documentation of endangered languages, particularly Itelmen. He is actively involved in multiple international research collaborations and regularly presents at major linguistic conferences across Europe and North America. His work is published in top journals such as Natural Language and Linguistic Theory and Language . His research interests lie at the intersection of theoretical and descriptive linguistics. He investigates universal patterns in morphology and syntax, including suppletion, vowel harmony, ergativity, and control structures, often using data from understudied languages like Itelmen. His work combines rigorous formal analysis with deep empirical grounding in language documentation. The recent publications reflect a strong trend toward integrating typological diversity with formal theory. Key areas include morphosyntactic universals (e.g., suppletion in pronouns), information structure in verb-final languages, and the phonology of ejective consonants. There is also a growing emphasis on sociolinguistic and community-based aspects, as seen in collaborative work on language revitalization and the social life of the Itelmen language. He has received recognition through numerous scholarly publications and invited talks, though specific awards are not listed in the provided text. His collaborative projects suggest active grant involvement, particularly in language documentation and cross-linguistic typology. Bobaljik plays a central role in the Itelmen documentation and revitalization project, contributing to the creation of a dictionary app, the publication of historical manuscripts, and public exhibits on Siberian Indigenous knowledge. He collaborates with a team including David Koester, Chikako Ono, Tatiana Degai, and Maria Pupynina.

Dr. Tatiana Degai is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Anthropology at the University of Victoria, Canada. Her work integrates Indigenous knowledge systems with academic research, focusing on the North-Pacific/Arctic regions and the Itelmen People of Kamchatka. Expertise: Indigenous research methodologies, ethics, community-engaged research, language revitalization, and sustainability in northern climates. Courses Taught: ANTH 306 (Indigenous Storytelling Traditions), ANTH 318 (Ethnographic Research Methods), ANTH 333 (Indigenous Visions on Sustainability), ANTH 370 (Indigenous Languages and Cultures), ANTH 483 (Arctic Anthropology). Her research emphasizes Indigenous data sovereignty, climate change resilience, and the co-production of knowledge through community collaboration. She applies Indigenous storywork approaches to center Indigenous epistemologies in addressing geopolitical, linguistic, and environmental challenges. Dr. Degai's publications highlight interdisciplinary efforts in sustainability, cultural preservation, and Arctic governance. She collaborates with Indigenous knowledge holders across Siberia, the Pacific Northwest, and Arctic regions to advance decolonized research frameworks.
