Présentation

Short bio I'm a language typologist, studying the distribution of linguistic diversity in space and time. In my research, I try to understand the synchronic distribution and evolutionary dynamics of morphosyntactic structures of the world’s languages in light of the interplay between general human cognitive abilities and processes of cultural evolution. My domains of expertise include: morphosyntactic typology, nominal classification systems, number systems, Bantu languages, and the comparative study of contact-induced language change.

Since 2022, I am an Associate Professor (Maîtresse de Conférences) at Aix-Marseille University and the CNRS Laboratory Parole et Langage. Together with Annemarie Verkerk, I coordinate the SocioBaGS project, funded by the French and German National Research Foundations. Our research team investigates how Bantu gender systems vary and change in contact situations, and, more specifically, whether processes of change differ depending on whether languages in contact share ancestry.

I am visiting researcher at the University of Helsinki, affiliated to the GramAdapt team. Since 2019, I am one of the Associate Editors of the Diamond Open Access journal Linguistic Typology at the Crossoroads.

A complete list of publications can be found here.

Teaching At the Department of Language Sciences at Aix-Marseille University, I teach undergraduate and graduate level courses in morphosyntax, language typology, research methods, and epistemology of linguistic research.
