Student Organizers

Aditya Yedetore Co-organizer “I’m a fourth year graduate student in the Linguistics Department at Boston University, working with Professor Najoung Kim. I am interested in semantics, syntax, and language acquisition. My current work involves comparing linguistic generalization in neural networks and children. I am also completing research on the semantics of motion predicates under Professor Elizabeth Coppock.“

Romi Hill Co-organizer “I’m a second year PhD student in the Linguistics Department at Boston University. I’m interested in morphology and its interfaces with syntax, semantics, and phonology. I’m fascinated by how form and meaning interact in complex words, especially in typologically diverse languages. My current research include a semantics-based analysis of reduplicated reciprocal verbs in Indonesian, and the documentation and description of Alabama, an endangered Muskogean language.”

Danutham Worapipat (North) Co-organizer “I’m a third year PhD student in Linguistics Department at Boston University. I’m interested in syntax and its interfaces with morphology and semantics. I’m curious about how similar meanings are expressed through different structures cross-linguistically. My current research includes syntax of argument structure in Thai such as passive-like and unaccusative-ditransitive constructions, agreement and co-compounding.”
