Her work has been published in several journals, edited volumes, and conference proceedings. Hagit Borer is Professor and Chair of Linguistics at Queen Mary, University of London. She received her Ph.D. in Linguistics at MIT, and has held professorial positions at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst and at the University of Southern California. Her research interests include syntax, morphosyntax, the syntax-semantics interface, and the acquisition of syntax by children. Florian Schäfer is researcher at the the collaborative research centre (Sonderforschungsbereich) SFB 732 'Incremental Specification in Context' at the University of Stuttgart. He studied General and Theoretical Linguistics at the University of Potsdam and finished his dissertation on the (anti-) causative alternation in 2007 at the University of Stuttgart.
