Maria Gouskova is a Professor of Linguistics at the Department of Linguistics, New York University (NYU). She is affiliated with the College of Arts and Science and holds editorial roles as an Associate Editor of Language and board member of NLLT and Phonology . Her research focuses on phonology, morphology, and lexicon, with a particular emphasis on morphophonological interactions, sublexicons, and phonotactic constraints. She earned her Ph.D. in Linguistics from the University of Massachusetts, Amherst (2003) and a B.A. in English Linguistics and German Language/Literature from Eastern Michigan University (1998). Her work bridges theoretical phonology and experimental methods, addressing questions such as how phonological patterns interact with morphology, the role of sublexical phonotactics in grammatical processes, and the learnability of complex segmental inventories. Recent research includes studies on Russian diminutive affixes, gradient phonological constraints, and the phonological properties of compounds. Her publications span topics like allomorphy, lexical phonology, and the typology of morpheme structure constraints. She frequently collaborates on projects investigating the interplay between syntax, phonology, and morphology, as seen in studies of Russian prepositions and compound stress patterns. Her contributions to phonological theory include advancing models of sublexicon theory and nonlocal constraint induction.

• +۳ مورد دیگر

Øyvind Gjerstad is an Associate Professor of French Linguistics in the Department of Foreign Languages at the University of Bergen. His academic work focuses on the intersection of language, narrative, and climate change discourse, with particular emphasis on comparative analyses between French and Norwegian contexts. As a core member of the LINGCLIM research group (Language, Climate and Lifestyle), he contributes to interdisciplinary investigations of how linguistic structures shape public understanding of environmental issues. Gjerstad's research interests center on linguistic polyphony, narrative analysis, and discourse structures as applied to climate communication. His work examines how narratives about climate change are constructed linguistically, how different voices are represented in climate discourse, and how narrative frameworks influence public perception and willingness to act. He has developed methodological approaches that combine narrative analysis with polyphonic theory to reveal complex storylines in climate-related texts, particularly focusing on how negation, reported speech, and rhetorical devices function in climate communication. His publication record demonstrates consistent scholarly output examining climate narratives across various text genres including political documents, media coverage, and public surveys. Recent work has increasingly focused on the combination of narrative and polyphonic analysis ('polynarrativity') to uncover intersecting storylines in climate discourse. His research spans both descriptive analyses of existing narratives and explorations of how normative narratives might be constructed to motivate climate action. Gjerstad has supervised graduate students, including Taran Marie Hoel Stabell's Master's thesis on French temporal prepositions. His research has been supported by funding from the Research Council of Norway (projects 220654 and 301103), indicating sustained institutional support for his work on climate discourse analysis. He actively participates in academic conferences across Europe, presenting his findings to both linguistics and climate studies audiences. As part of the LINGCLIM research group, Gjerstad collaborates closely with Kjersti Fløttum and other colleagues on projects examining how language shapes climate perceptions and actions. His work bridges theoretical linguistics with practical applications in climate communication, contributing to interdisciplinary efforts to understand and address the climate crisis through the lens of language and narrative.

Dr. Tyll Robin Lemke is a researcher at Saarland University in the Department of Modern German Linguistics (Neuere deutsche Sprachwissenschaft). He serves as a scientific staff member in Project B3 of the Collaborative Research Center SFB 1102. His academic focus includes experimental linguistics, syntax, and psycholinguistics, with specialized expertise in ellipsis phenomena and fragment analysis. Lemke's research explores the cognitive underpinnings of language production and comprehension, particularly investigating how predictability, context, and information theory shape linguistic structures. His work employs diverse methodologies including corpus analysis, psycholinguistic experiments, computational modeling, and gamified experimental paradigms to examine ellipsis, fragments, and syntactic phenomena in German. Analysis of Lemke's recent publications reveals consistent themes: the role of predictability in language production, constraints on ellipsis resolution, information-theoretic approaches to language efficiency, and experimental validation of syntactic theories. His research bridges theoretical linguistics with cognitive science through innovative experimental designs. In the upcoming 2025/26 winter semester, Lemke is teaching courses on Experimental Linguistics and Ellipsis in Theory and Experiment. He maintains an active research program within the SFB 1102 collaborative framework and regularly presents at international linguistics conferences.
