Jag jobbar som postdoktor på Instutitionen för svenska språket vid Göteborgs universtitet. Jag är med i Språkbanken och medlem i Center for Language Technology. I min forskning svävar jag mellan teoretisk lingvistik och datalingvistik och jag har absolut blivit smittad av korpusbacillen. Tidigare har jag sysslat med ordföljdsvariation (i Nederländskan), tolkning av pronomer (i Nederländskan och Tyskan) och användningen av syntaktiskt annoterade (parallella) korpussar

Avhandling

Jag disputerade 2008 vid universitetet i Groningen. I min avhandling tittade jag på preferenser i fundamentplacering i nederländskt talspråk. Handledningen utfördes av prof:a Petra Hendriks, Jack Hoeksema och Henriëtte de Swart. En pdf på min avhandling går att ladda ner här i två versioner:

Två ytliga fel kring tabell 5, sida 22: Begreppet micro-average beskrivs felaktigt i fotnot 12, och på rad 9 i tabellen är fel antal ord angiven (ska vara 5972). Beräkningarna är däremot korrekta.
