Research Interest

My research has been exploring the interface between phonology and phonetics focusing on a range of phonological phenomena (palatalization, assimilation, etc.) and their phonetic correlates or sources (coarticulation, misperception, etc.). I have worked with a number of languages (Russian, Komi-Permyak, Japanese, Kannada, Korean) and employed various experimental methods, including articulography, electropalatography, ultrasound, acoustic analysis, and perceptual experiments.
