Présentation

Biography
Research Interests: Intonational phonology, Semantic and pragmatic aspects of intonation, Prosody in dialogue and interaction, Sociophonetics, Intonational variability
I am currently a Full Professor in Language Sciences at Aix-Marseille Université and a researcher at Laboratoire Parole et Langage (France).
I am interested in the way intonation contributes to the grammar and uses of languages, with a special focus on French. I have mostly been working on the French intonational system, both on how to characterize French intonational tunes on the phonetic/phonological side and on how to define their contribution to meaning. Recently, I have also been interested in the role of social information (gender, diatopic variation) in linguistic representation.
Since receiving my PhD from Université de Provence in 2004, I was an Associate Professor in Language Sciences at Aix-Marseille Université from 2005 to 2025, and I obtained a Mercator Fellowship at the Institut für Maschinelle Sprachverarbeitung (IMS), Universität Stuttgart, Germany in 2015–2016.
