Much of my research centres on errors in speech: how do errors come about? What do they tell us about the processes involved in speaking? Are listeners sensitive to speech disfluencies, and if they are, what use can they make of them? I am part of the Edinburgh Disfluency Group, which includes people from Edinburgh and Queen Margaret Universities, as well as the odd member or visitor from further afield. I am a member of the Language, Cognition and Communication Group in the School of Philosophy, Psychology and Language Sciences. I also have links with the Psychological Imaging Laboratory at the University of Stirling. (source)

Sandra Götz obtained her PhD in English Linguistics with a dissertation on "Fluency in Native and Nonnative English Speech" in a joint univerity degree program between Justus Liebig University Giessen and Macquarie University Sydney in 2011, which was published with John Benjamins in 2013. Since then, she has been working as a senior lecturer in English Linguistics at Justus Liebig University, Giessen. Her main research interests include (learner) corpus linguistics and its application to language teaching and testing, applied linguistics and the despciption of fluency in ENL, ESL and EFL variants of English. Currently, she is the general secretary of the
Learner Corpus Association and the book review editor of the International Journal of Learner Corpus Research.

David's research focuses on signed languages, and his current work focuses on developmental signed language disorders, the interaction of language and gesture, and trilingual (Spanish-ASL-English) interpretation. He has also worked on register variation in ASL language contact between ASL and LSM. He has directed the American Sign Language (ASL) programs at the University of Pittsburgh, the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and currently directs the program at UT-Austin. He teaches courses on general linguistics, bilingual first language acquisition, and signed language linguistics. David is also a certified ASL-English interpreter and currently President of Mano a Mano, a national organization for trilingual (Spanish-English-ASL) interpreters. (source)
