Very best of luck to Vanessa Ferdinand, Catriona Silvey and Bill Thompson, who have finished up their PhDs in the LEC and headed off to fantastic post-doc positions elsewhere.

Vanessa (thesis title: “Inductive Evolution: the cognitive explanation of cultural change and regularity in language”) is off to the Santa Fe Institute, to take up an Omidyar Fellowship.

Cat (thesis title: “The Communicative Emergence and Cultural Evolution ofWord Meanings”) is joining Susan Goldin-Meadow’s lab at the University of Chicago.

Last but not least, Bill (thesis title: “Transmission, Induction, and Evolution”) is moving to Brussels, to work on Bart de Boer’s ERC-funded project at the Vrije Universiteit Brussel.

Don’t forget to come back and visit us from time to time!
