Massimo Lipari

I’m a doctoral candidate in phonetics at McGill University in Montreal, Quebec, affiliated with the Montréal Computational & Quantitative Linguistics Lab (MCQLL) and the Centre for Research on Brain, Language and Music (CRBLM). My supervisors are Profs. Morgan Sonderegger and Meghan Clayards.

Most of my work falls under the label of corpus phonetics, but touches on a broad set of topics. These include the dynamics of speech, language variation and change, the mapping between articulation and acoustics, and the phonetic/phonology interface.

In a previous life, I studied a bit of semantics, philosophy of language, and logic, and I have some experience teaching these topics as well.

In English, I pronounce my name [ˈma.sɪ.moʊ lɪˈpa.ɹi], but I’m not very picky (especially about the quality of the low vowels).
