Just back from a fantastic three months at NYU Linguistics. I feel like I’ve learnt so much! Thanks Laurel MacKenzie and everyone in the department for welcoming me!

Gutted I wasn’t there in person, but glad Scott, Rémi and Adam were at #BAAP2024 to share our findings on pupil size as a measure of cognitive load when listening to different accented speech.

A bumper day for QM at #BAAP2024 yesterday! 📣 Talks on Singaporean child directed speech, Judeo-English in London, dialect acquisition, and pupilometry. Well done to Adam, Keren, Scott, Marc and Rémi 👏

I am very pleased to have just launched my web survey for my PhD data collection: uofg.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_6F… - any retweets and shares would be much appreciated - it is aimed at Nonbinary/Non-binary people who live in or are from the South of England and Central Belt Scotland! 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

📌First PhD Publication!

In this preregistration we outline how and why we investigate the perceptual effects of Arabic grammatical gender on occupational expectations.

QMUL phoneticians had a great time presenting their work at #ICPhS last week!

Really loved chatting to people about mine and Sophie Holmes-Elliott 🧜‍♀️🧜‍♂️’s work on lifespan change today at #ICPhS2023

Taking a piece of the Black Country ⛓️ to #icphs23 today!

My experiment found that when Black Country speakers switched between dialect and standard speech 🗣️, their vowel perceptions shifted👂.

Find me in the “speech perception 2” poster session 🖼️.

Excited for a week of phonetics at #ICPhS23 in Prague.

I will vote for whichever London mayoral candidate who stops pubs in central selling you a pint ten minutes before kicking you out

📢 Calling Southerners to take part in a (paid) study at our London lab, to help us better understand how speech production varies across individuals!

Email/DM me for any Qs or if you might be interested! More details linked 👇🏼
