Why Is Liina Pylkkänen Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Liina Pylkkänen is a Professor of Linguistics and Psychology at New York University. Her research considers the neurobiology of language and theoretical linguistics. Early life and education Pylkkänen grew up in Tampere, Finland. Pylkkänen studied philology at the University of Tampere. She was an undergraduate exchange student at the University of Pittsburgh, and decided to move there for her graduate studies. In 1997 she joined Massachusetts Institute of Technology as a doctoral researcher. Her doctorate explored verbal argument structure and cross-linguistic variations in introducing arguments. She joined New York University as a postdoctoral fellow in 2002.
