Happy to have joined the summer school on Forensic Linguistics held for the first time
on July 22-26, 2018 at the University of Cologne, Germany and organized by the Student Council for Linguistics and Phonetics of the latter. The short course focused on authorship profiling and attribution, discourse analysis, as well as language and meaning. It was led by Isabel Picornell (QED Limited), Ria Perkins (Hapax Consulting Ltd & Aston University), and Nicci MacLeod (Aston University).

Many thanks to SimPhon.Net in cooperation with the Stuttgart Research Focus Language and Cognition
for having us at the workhop on psycholinguistic, cognitive and neurolinguistic modeling in phonetics and phonology.
We had a great time both during the scientific discussions and when exploring the beautifully situated University of Hohenheim!
