Présentation
I am looking for a postdoctoral position in neurolinguistics.
My research focuses on understanding how the human brain and mind organize linguistic features during speech processing by investigating two main questions:
- How are speech sounds, word meanings and emotional cues encoded and decoded during speech perception and production?
- How does our native language influence the way we hear, understand, and learn a foreign language?
Along my research journey, I explored semantic and phonological associations in the mental lexicon during my MA in Linguistics (National Chengchi University, Taipei, Taiwan, 2020). Then, I studied sensorimotor representations for native and non-native phoneme perception during my PhD in Neuroscience (Université Lumière Lyon 2, Lyon, France, January 21 2025). Through my research in psycho- and neurolinguistics, particularly in speech production and perception, I have developed expertise in
- fMRI experiments (3T sparse and continuous sequence)
- multi-voxel pattern analysis (Nilearn/scikit-learn/rsatoolbox)
- Statistical analysis/Programming (Python, R)
- Speech processing (Praat)
I also aim to acquire additional neuroimaging techniques (7T fMRI or M/EEG) and further refine my analytical skills. I'm always open to discussions and I welcome academic collaborations, especially within (but not limited to) my current research interests. You can find me on my acdemic profile, Bluesky, and GitHub.
