·       Argument structure

·       Clinical linguistics

·       Distributional/distributed approaches to computational semantics

·       Experimental pragmatics and semantics

·       Formal pragmatics and formal models of discourse structure

·       Information structure

·       Interplay between computational linguistics and linguistic theory:
computational semantics, semantic theory, and grounding language in vision

·       Language change

·       Morphology-syntax interface

faculty members <https://www.upf.edu/web/glif/people>.

Please note that GLiF itself is neither the grant-awarding body nor a
department, nor the only group based at an institution that might
incorporate successful applicants. Please note also that support from
members of the group is not automatic but subject to their agreement in the
light of the candidate’s academic profile and the ability to fulfill the
teaching requirements of the Department of Translation and Language
Sciences (80 hours/year). In addition, each supporter is only allowed to
back one applicant.
