I am Ted Gibson, and I study human language in MIT's Brain and Cognitive Sciences. My lab is sometimes called the Language Lab or Tedlab. I work a lot with Ev Fedorenko.

I may be a *little* biased but this 📘 is GREAT! If you ever found language structure interesting, but were turned off by implausible and overly complicated accounts, this book is 4U: a simple and empirically grounded account of the syntax of natural lgs. A must-read for lang researchers+aficionados!
New book! I have written a book, called Syntax: A cognitive approach, published by MIT Press.
This is open access; MIT Press will post a link soon, but until then, the book is available on my website:
