Massimiliano Canzi PhD

data scientist & lab manager · linguistics · universität konstanz

I am a data scientist and laboratory manager in the Department of Linguistics at Universität Konstanz, where I have worked since 2021. I am trained in quantitative research in phonetics and the speech sciences, and I work on speech perception with physiological methods such as ERP, pupillometry and eye tracking.

I mainly teach MA-level statistics in R, but I also occasionally teach courses on forensic speech science, pupillometry and eye tracking, English phonetics, and other topics.
