Despite all of the setbacks, my eye-tracking study with Ailís Cournane is finally out! doi.org/10.1017/S136...

Hi linguists! Join current LSA Executive Committee member Melissa Baese-Berk @m2b2.bsky.social at this week’s Write Time Friday! Just sit in a zoom room and get some work done with other linguists, no talking. May 2, 2025 | 10 am - 12 pm ET. www.lsadc.org/ev_calendar_...

🧠 What is happening when bilingual speakers switch languages mid-conversation? Join Dr. @sarahlinguist.bsky.social for ""When Code-Switching Isn’t 'Switching' at All"" + explore how neuroscience is reshaping what we know about code-switching. Saturday, May 10 | Language Science Fair at Planet Word

Attended 2 non-linguistic conferences ( #TS2025, #ASNR2025 ) where presenters made analogies to language. The good: Some have engaged with linguistically informed research to draw connections. The bad: Some have oversimplified linguistic experiences to make their own work “easier to understand.”

I am also very bad at this but if you missed out at #HSP2025, don’t worry—register for #LingComm25 TODAY! Registration ends 3/31 👀

Re-upping this -- please pass this along to early career folks navigating peer review!

Hey. The fragmentation of the social media landscape has been hard on indie #scicomm 🧪 projects So if you'd like to follow a podcast that's enthusiastic about #linguistics, could you check out @lingthusiasm.bsky.social? And if you think your followers might like to, could you give this a repost?

I’m always mind blown when I see data visualizations made in Excel 🤯

Just thinking about how epic the DC rally for #standupforscience2025 was…

Today’s the day!

Just got an email from the zombie journal soliciting my submissions so I thought I'd remind everyone that in 2015 the entire editorial board of "Lingua" resigned and created a new independent OA journal (Glossa). Don't submit to the new Lingua. slate.com/human-intere...

I am thrilled to share our new paper which investigates the role of continuous measures in linguistic diversity research. We found that children who are exposed to more linguistic diversity (e.g., language, dialect, accent) are perceptually more flexible. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

This one (until I write my own one day?)

I love how the first time I was on here, I was submitting a grant proposal. And now I’m back after resubmitting that same grant proposal. 🙃

Hello new (and old followers). I left the other place and came here about a year ago. It was the best decision. I am so glad you’re here now. I missed you!

“Facts don’t care about ya feelin’s”

We are now accepting submissions for HSP2024 at UMich! Deadline: Jan 8th. See the CfP for details.

I keep seeing brilliant (and very expensive 👀) data presented but very little hypothesis testing. Anyone else disappointed by this? 😔😔😔

Having trouble recruiting diverse participants? Love this nugget: “The face of the study isn’t the PI…the face of the study is the person who is recruiting and interacting [with potential participants]” - Charles Ellis

It’s definitely work in progress with my postdoc advisor Elissa Newport and our collaborator Heidi Getz, so there will be LOTS to discuss 🙃🙃🙃

Ad for really cool sounding job: Penn State is looking for an applied linguist who works on women’s, gender, and sexuality studies - circulate widely! www.higheredjobs.com/details.cfm?...

Waking up to the realization that my life has really been insane since August. Ugh. I better clean up this email inbox.

Now it’s time to sleep and pray that they review this grant proposal. 🙏🏽

Finally, I made it. 🙌🏽 Now back to this grant proposal…
