Ph.D. candidate, Theoretical and Applied Linguistics
I am a third-year PhD candidate in Linguistics at Lomonosov Moscow State University, investigating agreement variation in Russian. I am also interested in nonfinite clauses, i.e. infinitives and nominalizations, and negative polarity items licensing. In my research I primarily use methods of experimental syntax with particular interest in linguistic variation.
With my supervisor Prof. Dr. Habil. Ekaterina Lyutikova I teach two courses on experimental syntax at the Department of Theoretical and Applied Linguistics (Lomonosov MSU).
- syntax
- variation
- agreement
- gender
- NPI licensing
- experimental syntax
- acceptability judgments
- Russian

April 2022 — Our team has won grant award from Russian Science Foundation on our new project «Parametric model of agreement in the light of experimental data» (RSF Project 22-18-00037 realized at Lomonosov Moscow State University). Learn more.
December 2021 — The volume “Russian islands in the light of experimental data” is published! This volume presents the first step in the full-scale study of island constraints in Russian. Together with E. Lyutikova I was an editor of this volume. Learn more.

PhD Project
Quantitative Methods of Investigating Grammar
(A Case Study of Agreement Variation in Russian)
For my dissertation, I am conducting a multifactorial study of binominal copular clauses in Russian. My goal is to define a set of parameters that determine agreement variation and investigate whether this set depends on grammatical profiles of individual speakers.
My supervisor is Prof. Dr. Habil. Ekaterina Lyutikova.
