The aim of the Laboratoire d’excellence “Empirical Foundations of Linguistics

interdisciplinary research within Linguistics and its related fields. Specific
interest is given to empirical foundations (corpus analysis and experimental
methods) of linguistic research. 
For the 5th time, the Labex EFL offers 5 mobility grants for a period of 3
months each to PhD students in linguistics and related fields. 

The Labex EFL (www.labex-efl.com) is a nine-year project, funded by the French

universities, members of Sorbonne Paris Cité University, (Université Sorbonne
Nouvelle, Université Paris Diderot, Université Paris Descartes, Université
Paris 13 et Institut National des Langues et Civilisations Orientales INALCO),
in a partnership with the French National Center for Scientific Research
(CNRS), the French Institute for Research in Computer Science and Automation
(INRIA) and the French Research and Development Institute (IRD).
