Shuyan WangI am a Postdoctoral Associate in Linguistics at University of Connecticut, working on bimodal bilingualism with Dr. Diane Lillo-Martin.
Before this, I was a postdoctoral associate in Linguistics at Rutgers University, working on word learning with Dr. Kristen Syrett. I received my Ph.D. in Linguistics from the University of Connecticut in 2022. My dissertation is titled Scalar Implicatures in Child Language: The Role of Processing Capacities, under the supervision of William Snyder, Diane Lillo-Martin, Zeljko Boskovic, and Magdalena Kaufmann. I am mainly interested in language acquisition, especially the acquisition of pragmatics, semantics, and syntax. I focus on how factors like grammar, processing, maternal input, and context can influence language development in (non)-native environments. I am also interested in bimodal (sign-speech) bilingualism, syntax, and sign language studies.
