I am a postdoctoral researcher working on visual modes of language. Currently, I am leading a project entitled "Gestures in spoken and signed discourse" in which we compare the production of gestures in two languages differing in modality: German and German Sign Language (DGS). The goal is to shed more light onto the relationship between gestures and information structure in discourse. In the context of this project, I will be away as a guest researcher at the University of Cologne, Germany (2021-2022) and at the University of Copenhagen, Denmark (2022-2023).
