Third-year PhDer working on the morphosyntax of intransitive reflexives and reciprocals in Basque. My main research interests are argument-structure alternations, detransitivization, voice and voice syncretism, as well as the relation between intransitive constructions such as (anti)passives, middles, anticausatives, reflexives and reciprocals.

Second-year PhDer working on the prosody of Apsáalooke, a Siouan language of Montana (USA). I’m interested in lexical pitch-accents, at a phonetic and phonological level, as well as what intonation can tell us about the mapping of syntax constituents into phonological ones.

Postdoctoral researcher working on the adpositional domain from a nanosyntactic framework. I recently defended my PhD dissertation Spatial adpositions: the Basque Paths (2026). My main research topics and areas of interests are paths, motion events, Goal-Source asymmetry, distributivity and argument structure. 

Fourth-year PhDer, studying the syntax and semantics of modifiers in Basque. Some of my research topics are the relation between adverbs and adjectives, how predicates turn into modifiers, the individual-level vs. stage-level distinction and the different meanings of definite determiners. 

First-year PhDer researching the scope of Basque indefinite quantifiers. I'm mainly interested in the syntax-semantics interface and some of my research topics are quantifiers and their interaction, extra-wide scope, island insensitivity and specificity.

Third-year PhDer. I work on silence. That includes–mostly but not exclusively–clausal ellipsis in Basque. My research interests lie in the syntax and semantics of A'-movement, wh-questions, focus, islandhood and clausal pied-pipping.
