PhD student Christopher Hammerly is appearing in Human Brain Mapping with a paper entitled The temporal dynamics of structure and content in sentence comprehension: Evidence from fMRI-constrained MEG. The work was completed during his Baggett Fellowship at the University of Maryland, and is a collaboration with William Matchin (University of South Carolina), Ellen Lau (University of Maryland, College Park), and Christian Brodbeck (University of Maryland, College Park). The paper can be found here: https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/pdf/10.1002/hbm.24403

Christopher Hammerly at UC Santa Cruz
Christopher Hammerly will be giving two invited talks this week at UC Santa Cruz Linguistics, both of which are on Thursday May 3rd. The first is “A verb raising analysis of the Ojibwe VOS/VSO alternation”, and the second is “The grammaticality asymmetry reflects response bias: Experimental and modeling evidence” (joint work with Adrian Staub and Brian Dillon).
Paper by Hammerly in Cortex
A new paper, The role of the IFG and pSTS in syntactic prediction: evidence from a parametric study of hierarchical structure in fMRI, that I wrote in collaboration with William Matchin (UC San Diego) and Ellen Lau (Maryland) has been published by Cortex. It is currently in press, but is available on their website if you’re logged in through the library, or on William’s home page if you are connected on academia.edu.
