On the 25th of October I'm presenting La relevancia de la poesía para la teoría fonológica (The relevance of poetry for phonological theory) al Trenta-dosè Col·loqui Lingüístic de la Universitat de Barcelona (CLUB): "Prosòdia, vers i fraseologia".

Together with Clàudia Pons (UB), I'm the co-PI of the recently funded project La interacción entre la fonología y los componentes fonético y morfosintáctico: retos actuales para el estudio de la variación lingüística (PID2023-150846NB-C31; Agencia Estatal de Investigación, Ministerio de Ciencia, Innovación y Universidades.

In June we hosted the International Workshop on Metrical Phonology at the University of Valencia, with Ryan Bennett (University of California Santa Cruz), René Kager (Utrecht) and Kevin Ryan (Harvard) as invited speakers. We had a lot of fun and interesting discussions related to metrical and prosodic structure, thanks to the project New Evidence for Internally Layered Ternary Feet: Theory and Applications of Prosodic Phonology, funded by Generalitat Valenciana, Conselleria de Educación, Universidades y Empleo  (GE 2023, ref. CIGE/2022/114).
