Huilei Wang 

I am a Humboldt postdoc researcher working with Hedde Zeijlstra at Georg-August-Universität Göttingen. My research connects generative syntax and formal semantics on topics including quantification and scope theory, relativization, clausal complementation, reconstruction effects, and cumulativity. 

I recently received my PhD from the Department of Linguistics, UCLA. My dissertation investigates the nature of a movement-based scope-taking mechanism, via the lens of the clause-boundedness of quantificational scope and its counterexamples attested cross-linguistically. My committee was formed by Ethan Poole ,Yael Sharvit, Dylan Bumford and Tim Hunter.

My first name is pronounced as [xweɪleɪ], and with tones [xweɪ˥˩ leɪ˩˨].
