My name is Yuriy [ˈjuɹi] and I am a linguist and language teacher.

I am currently a member of the Cyclic Optimization research unit at the linguistics deparment of Leipzig University.

I also teach Lithuanian, German and Ukrainian at the Spracheninstitut an der Universität Leipzig.

I obtained a doctorate degree in linguistics from Leipzig University in early 2019. A copy of my thesis can be found here.

In addition to natural language, I have worked extensively as a computer programmer for various companies in Ukraine, the US and Germany.

I am primarily interested in grammar theory, particularly in issues happening at the syntax-PF interface.
