Huilei Wang
Pronouns: she/her
I am a linguist with interests in formal semantics and its interface with syntax. My research focuses on how compositional semantics interacts with clause-embedding structures and how cross-clausal semantic dependencies are derived and constrained.
I am currently a postdoc funded by Humboldt Fellowship, working with Hedde Zeijlstra at Georg-August-Universität Göttingen. Before coming to Göttingen, I earned my PhD from the Department of Linguistics at UCLA, and wrote a dissertation examining the nature of clause-boundedness of quantificational scope, advised by Ethan Poole, Yael Sharvit, Dylan Bumford and Tim Hunter.
