About Me

Hi! My name is Pham Le Nhat Linh (I love it when people call me Nhat Linh /ɲət lɪŋ/). I'm a 5th year PhD student studying linguistics at The University of Southern California (USC), where I am supervised by Professor Elsi Kaiser and Professor Zuzanna Fuchs

My main research area is psycholinguistics with a focus on sentence processing. Specific topics I am currently working on and interested in are similarity-interference in wh-constructions, anaphora resolutions, and encoding interference.

I'm also interested in bilingualism, particularly my research focuses on the shared-syntactic models in bilingual language processing.

Pursuing equality in education is another major mission in my life. Thus, I am operating social projects to provide education to underprivileged groups – Daffodils Education Project.
