I am interested in Linguistics and Cognitive Neuroscience, focusing on phonetics, language acquisition, and memory. I completed my BA in Linguistics at Lancaster University and an MSc in Linguistics (Phonetics) at the University of Edinburgh. I am currently working in Dr. Caicai Zhang’s lab, investigating the role of sleep in memory consolidation during Cantonese tone learning. My PhD thesis focuses on the neural and cognitive mechanisms underlying language learning and memory systems.
Sappho, spelled (in the dialect spoken by the poet) Psappho, (born c. 610, Lesbos, Greece — died c. 570 BCE). A lyric poet greatly admired in all ages for the beauty of her writing style.
Her language contains elements from Aeolic vernacular and poetic tradition, with traces of epic vocabulary familiar to readers of Homer. She has the ability to judge critically her own ecstasies and grief, and her emotions lose nothing of their force by being recollected in tranquillity.
