Janek Guerrini 

I am currently a post-doctoral researcher within the "Negation and Cancellation" project at the Goethe University in Frankfurt (PIs: Cornelia Ebert and André Fuhrmann).

I got my PhD at École Normale Supérieure in Paris, working under the supervision of Benjamin Spector within LINGUAE, a research group at Institut Jean-Nicod. 

My work is in formal semantics of natural language and philosophy of language.

My main research interests are non-intersective modification and genericity. Here’s why I think they’re interesting: both of these phenomena have posed a long-standing challenge to semantic theory, and both seem to be particularly sensitive to the structure of our conceptual, non-linguistic representations. This makes for a domain where the study of language can both inform and be informed by broader questions in cognitive science.
