Methods:
- Statistical modeling; probabilistic approaches to language structure and
processing
- Formal/mathematical theories of linguistic systems
- Experimental studies of language; psycholinguistics
- Acoustic phonetics; prosody and intonation
- Machine learning and natural language processing; corpus analysis
- Functional and structural neuroimaging; electrophysiology

Populations:
- Mono- and multilingual
- Infant, young adult and elderly
- Acquired and developmental disorders
