Short bio

This is a test to commit from RStudio.

I am currently a postdoctoral researcher at the Institute of Linguistics of Academia Sinica, Taiwan. I am working on my own 2-year project entitled “Paving the way for ‘field psycholinguistics’ of Formosan languages: Case studies in Truku Seediq, Bunun and Tsou”, with a grant from the Academia Sinica postdoctoral scholar program.
Previously, I worked on another 2-year postdoctoral project (2022-2024), “On the expression of temporal reference with modal information from a morphosyntactic and psycho-/neuro-linguistic perspective: The case of ‘you (to have) + VP’ in Taiwan Mandarin”, where I examined this grammatical construction in the variety of Mandarin spoken in Taiwan using a wide range of techniques: corpus-driven observations, morphosyntactic/semantic/discursive analyses, behavioral methods (acceptability judgments, self-paced reading), neuroimaging methods (EEG/ERP).
I graduated from the PhD program of the department of English of National Taiwan Normal University (Linguistic track) in June 2022. During my PhD studies, I was also the manager of the Neurolinguistics Lab of National Taiwan Normal University, where I supervized behavioral, ERP and fMRI experiments about a great variety of language-related topics, such as language relativity, classifier processing or conceptual categorization.

Research interests

My research interests combine two disciplines: linguistics and cognitive science (including language processing). My main area of research can be summarized as follows:
