I have submitted my PhD thesis, entitled “Memory reports”, under the supervison of Kristina Liefke and Markus Werning. It is a closely connected collection of two linguistic, two philosophical and two interdisciplinary papers on the semantics of memory reports and their (non-)relation to the cognitive capacity of remembering. I am looking forward to a proper goodbye with my favourite Bochum places and people around my defense this Summer. Reach out if you would like to have a version of my thesis before its official publication.
I’ve had the honor to be a co-referee of Lucie Kosů’s Master thesis “Gender mismatches under nominal ellipsis in Slavic languages” – my first time on a defense committee. Congratulations on an important contribution to the study of grammatical gender and on graduating with distinction!
The first article which I have ever edited (together with Valeria Gradimondo) has been published by Teo Šestak in our ESSLLI student session special issue of the Journal of Logic, Language and Information. It is titled “Algebraic Semantics for Interpretability Logics”. Other articles are following incrementally.
Some upcoming talks and presentations: Semantic ascent as a practice in philosophy of memory – talk at the graduate conference ‘The Armchair on Trial’, Vienna Forum for Analytic Philosophy; an invited lecture at the 4th student workshop BerlinBrnoVienna; No time for polysemy – poster presentation at the ESSLLI workshop Polysemy across categories; Neurodiversity in academia – invited talk at the RMU Weeks of Equal Opportunities (Goethe University Frankfurt).
I’m in the ESSLLI 2026 organizational team, coordinating volunteers and “senior” advising the student session. I’m looking forward to what promises to be a super interesting time in Prague this Summer.
I am organizing the SORG, a semantics online reading group (only open for students and post-docs) on classic, foundational texts in formal semantics, based on this collection. We also have special squib sessions upon request, e.g. before submission deadlines. Send me an e-mail if you would like to be added to the invitees.
