Dan Parker is an Associate Professor in the Department of Linguistics at The Ohio State University. He is a psycholinguist who combines experimental, computational, and formal methods to study how humans process and interpret language in real-time. He is particularly interested how we mentally assemble and manipulate syntactic representations in working memory during moment-by-moment processing and how we access information in those representations via retrieval to guide interpretation.
