Nazik Dinçtopal Deniz is an Assistant Professor at Boğaziçi University's Department of Foreign Language Education, with a secondary appointment in the Cognitive Science program. Her research examines first and second language processing mechanisms, especially the role of prosody in syntactic and morphological disambiguation in Turkish. Research investigates rhythmic influences in sentence processing, prosodic resolution of ambiguities, and cross-linguistic factors in L2 processing. Current projects include a TÜBİTAK-funded study on negative polarity items in Turkish L1/L2 acquisition. Directs the Psycholinguistics Laboratory equipped with eye-tracking technology. Supervised 5 graduate theses on topics including focus processing and agreement asymmetries. No major scientific awards documented.

Ümit Atlamaz is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Linguistics at Boğaziçi University, where he also serves as Deputy Department Head. His academic work spans theoretical morphosyntax and computational linguistics, with a focus on case theory, agreement phenomena, and computational approaches to linguistic analysis. Dr. Atlamaz received his academic training at prestigious institutions: PhD in Linguistics, Rutgers University, USA (2019) MA in Linguistics, Boğaziçi University, Turkey (2012) BA in Foreign Language Education, Boğaziçi University, Turkey (2009) His research expertise lies at the intersection of theoretical syntax and computational linguistics. Dr. Atlamaz investigates complex phenomena including case theory, differential object marking, agreement disruptions, and null arguments from a generative perspective. His computational work focuses on natural language inference, sentiment analysis, and ontological representations, particularly for Turkish and other languages. His theoretical work often examines challenging cases from Kurmanji, Laz, and Turkish to refine our understanding of syntactic principles. Dr. Atlamaz's publication record demonstrates a consistent trajectory from theoretical syntax toward increasingly computational approaches. While his earlier work focused on case and agreement phenomena in Kurdish and Caucasian languages, his recent publications show a growing emphasis on computational methods, including neural network approaches to morphological analysis and computational modeling of language change. His research bridges formal linguistic theory with practical computational applications. Dr. Atlamaz actively contributes to the academic community through teaching and collaboration. He teaches both undergraduate and graduate courses in syntax, semantics, and computational linguistics. He co-organizes the ST@BU (Syntactic Theory at Boğaziçi University) reading group, which focuses on advanced topics in syntactic theory. His collaborations span multiple institutions and include work with researchers at Facebook and Google on natural language processing projects. Dr. Atlamaz leads research projects including "Turkish Eksiltim" (Boğaziçi University Scientific Research Projects 19348) and participates in multiple collaborative research initiatives.

Elena Guerzoni serves as Associate Professor in the Department of Linguistics at Boğaziçi University, where she advises MA and PhD students from her office in JF 305. Her academic foundation includes a Ph.D. in Linguistics from MIT (2003) and a Laurea in Philosophy from Università degli Studi di Milano (1997). Her educational background is reflected in her dual focus on formal linguistic theory and philosophical underpinnings of language. She has taught undergraduate courses including Introduction to Linguistics (Ling 101/111) and Semantics (Ling 305), alongside graduate seminars in Advanced Semantics (Ling 58C/V), Presupposition and Implicature (Ling 613), and Directed Readings in Linguistics (Ling 572/570/579). Guerzoni's research centers on the syntax-semantics-pragmatics interface, with pioneering work on negative polarity phenomena across languages. Her investigations into interrogative embedding predicates, presupposition projection in questions, and focus-sensitive particles like even have reshaped understanding of scalarity and exhaustivity. She examines how minimizer NPIs interact with question operators and why certain particles license negative polarity only in specific syntactic configurations. Analysis of her 13 publications (2000-2022) reveals consistent focus on negative polarity in interrogative contexts, with increasing attention to cross-linguistic variation and pragmatic strengthening mechanisms. Her work bridges formal theory with empirical data from Germanic, Romance, and Turkish, demonstrating how focus particles constrain interpretation in question-answer congruence. As an active contributor to linguistic discourse, she has delivered 15+ invited talks at institutions including MIT, UCLA, and Hebrew University, addressing topics like intervention effects in negative concord and the semantics of whether clauses. Her editorial work includes co-editing A Few from Building E39 (MIT Working Papers in Linguistics) and preparing You Can Ask Whatever You Want (Oxford University Press). No scientific awards are documented in the provided materials, though her publications appear in Q1 journals like Natural Language Semantics and Linguistics and Philosophy . She maintains active research through manuscripts on Turkish hani and Italian verb stress, continuing her investigation into the morphology-syntax-semantics interface.
