We’re very pleased to announce that Fermín Moscoso del Prado Martín will be joining us as a new member of our faculty this August.
Fermín – currently at Radboud University in the Netherlands where he holds the Chair of Artificial Intelligence & Language, Speech and Communication – has been appointed to the position of Associate Professor in Computational Linguistics here.
I look forward to developing collaborations across the University to investigate how linguistic technologies can be used for better understanding human language.
