• Island Constraints in Mainland Scandinavian

• Universality and domain-specificity: processing relative clause extractions in Swedish

I am a PhD student in Nordic languages since 2014. My main research interest is in the area of theoretical syntax, with a current focus on questions of locality. Furthermore, I am interested in the experimental investigation of island effects. These are also the topics of my PhD project, where I focus on extractions from syntactic islands in the Mainland Scandinavian languages. (For further details on my project, see under “Projects”.)
