Speaker: Sandro Wick

BA in German Linguistics and Literature as well as the Study of Religion\s (University of Zurich and University of London)
Currently pursuing an MA in German Linguistics and Digital Linguistics (University of Zurich)
Also working as a research assistant at the chair of Prof. Dr. Christa Dürscheid and as a working student at the Abbey Library of St Gall

My current main interests lie in linguistic pragmatics, the relationship between Luhmannian systems theory and linguistics, and in the field of cultural-linguistic investigation of changes in writing practices, especially in the context of neural language models. In general, I aim to delve into the potential of machine learning as both a method and an object of linguistics in my studies, and to promote open data and open science in both education and research.
