About the Lab
The Breiss Lab is based in the Linguistics Department at the University of Chicago, and encompasses members and collaborators from other institutions.
Our research addresses questions about how phonological knowledge is represented and learned, how phonology interacts with morphosyntax and the lexicon, and how overlapping and interacting phonological processes are structured.
Research Interests
- Learning & acquisition — how phonological generalizations are acquired from input
- Phonological representations — the structure of overlapping and interacting processes
- Interfaces — phonology’s interactions with morphosyntax and the lexicon
- Methods — Bayesian modeling, neural representational analysis, corpus methods, and behavioral and psycholinguistic experiments of all sorts
