This study proposes new scaling laws for nonlinear dynamical models of speech, allowing us to develop more realistic models of articulatory control in speech. doi.org/10.1121/10.0035560

On the train back up to 🏴 after a great time presenting my research at @PhoneticsLab at Lancaster.
Thank you so much to @clairelnance & folk for such a lovely welcome and really helpful feedback. And hopefully see you all again soon when I have the 👀 data!

Out now in JASA! Using EMA to track head motion, we find evidence that co-speech head nod gestures are used in French as a way of enhancing and magnifying different levels of prosodic prominence.

🚨 New Paper Alert! 🚨
Lena Pagel, Simon Roessig and Doris Mücke just published a paper in @LabPhon on articulatory signatures of prosodic prominence in habitual and loud speech. Check it out here: journal-labphon.org/article/…!

Funding alert! Applied for a Marie Curie but got rejected with *Seal of Excellence* < 2 years ago? MUR is offering 150 very generous positions for 3-years senior postdocs! If interested in any of my research areas & want to join my lab @SapienzaRoma - Italy, send me an email!

We did a paper on why people everwhere seem to agree that cats say "meow". Interestingly, it seems to be due to the jaw and small stature of cats.
