Hi, and welcome to my page!

I'm Thyra, PhD candidate in Computational Linguistics in the SNSF-funded project Text und Bild in Leichter Sprache at Fachhochschule Nordwestschweiz and the University of Zurich. Briefly, the project aims to investigate the conditions under which illustrations enhance the comprehension of Easy Language text for (1) individuals with intellectual disabilities, (2) prelingually deaf individuals and (3) L2-speakers of German. 

I hold a MA degree in Psycholinguistics and Neurolinguistics from the University of Zurich. I am an active member of the MultiplEYE COST Action, as a language coordinator and translator of the stimulus materials into Swedish, as well as an experiment leader of sessions in Swedish, Romansh Sursilvan and Albanian. I am the Lab Manager for the Digital Linguistics Lab (DiLi) at the University of Zurich. Do not hesitate in contacting me if you would like to know more about the lab and the research we conduct here!

How is my name pronounced? In English I introduce myself as [tajɹa], in my native Swedish I go by [ty:ɾa], but any variant in any language is accepted!
