The #DHSpringSchool in Potsdam kicked off with an inspiring lecture by Michaela Mahlberg @michamahlberg on corpus linguistics and climate stories — exploring water-related collocations in texts and the narratives shaping our society #DigitalHumanities #CorpusLinguistics
Meloni chose Il Presidente as her official title. Why do many Italian women still opt for masculine professional titles?
The first of our Italian #CorpusLinguistics jobs on #gender—co-authored with Simona Frabotta—is out! https://aisberg.unibg.it/handle/10446/298488

Here's my latest paper on #DigitalHealthCommunication!
It explores health influencers' (HIs) and medical professionals' (MPs) stance towards menopause treatment on #socialmedia and focuses on establishing trust, credibility and the risks of online health #misinformation.

Acaba de salir mi reseña de The Discursive Construction of Economic Inequality, editado por Gómez-Jiménez y Toolan, en el número 70 de la revista Miscelánea.
Es un antídoto contra el fatalismo: demuestra que nada es irreversible.
Si el discurso pudo evolucionar en el pasado para peor, también puede ser transformado (para mejor, para la multitud) en el futuro.

Freshly published: my review of The Discursive Construction of Economic Inequality edited by Gómez-Jiménex & Toolan for the 70th issue of the Miscelánea journal.
It is an antidote for fatalism: it demonstrates that nothing is irreversible.
If discourse could evolve in the past for the worse, it could also be reshaped (for the better, for the many) in the future.

Good news alert
Next year, Fakespeak will become NxtGenFake!
PI Silje Alvestad has just received NOK 12 mln from The Research Council of Norway for her project:
"Towards detecting AI-generated disinformation: Fakespeak in the age of large language models"
Another humanities-driven project bringing together, not just language and computer scientists, but this time also media scientists.

"Please find attached a PDF file with your recent contribution to Corpora." Nice to see that this book review is finally out, but I submitted it in October 2023, so not so sure how this qualifies as a "recent contribution" to be honest... https://www.euppublishing.com/doi/abs/10.3366/cor.2024.0321?role=tab #AcademicPublishing #AcademicChatter #CorpusLinguistics
It's never fun to be off sick, but today is particularly sad as my colleagues from the SFB 1252 "Prominence in Language" are celebrating the success of phase II and the happy news that phase III has been approved for funding by the @dfg_public!
I'm delighted to co-lead an exciting project on gender as a prominence-lending cue with Stefan Hinterwimmer. We will very soon be advertising a #PhDPosition and two student RA positions! https://sfb1252.uni-koeln.de/projekte/b10-the-role-of-gender-in-prominence-hierarchies-a-cross-linguistic-and-cross-register-perspective #linguistics #CorpusLinguistics #PhD
Esta semana estuve en el #PsilexVI "Entre palabras y latidos" en la Universidad de #Zaragoza, un seminario internacional sobre #Lingüística y emociones. Hubo ponencias súper interesantes. Me lo pasé genial.
Di una charla sobre el carrusel de emociones en la prensa durante los famosos Cinco Días de Abril de 2024, cuando el perrosanxe dejó caer que igual se largaba.
Para el análisis, tiramos de Lingmotif, #SentimentAnalysis, #Emolex y modelos de lenguaje.
Looking forward to our next XVI #CorpusLinguistics Conference (#CILC2025) in Salamanca.
Don't forget to send your abstract, the CFP is open! May 15-17th 2025
I am the panelist of #Lexicology and #lexicography feel free to ask me anything!
