For this event, the Day of Data Planning Committee is delighted to partner with the Yale Department of Linguistics and the 2020-2021 Model Research Collection, Language is Everywhere: The Linguistics of Biology, Culture, and Society Across Time and Space, curated by Professor Claire Bowern. This year’s Model Research Collection makes language more visible by showing the different ways it contributes to the study of our lives: how language opens a window into the mind and brain, how children acquire language, how languages are lost and created around the world, how we can do archaeology with words and use language to study the past.

Sponsor: Center for Biomedical Data Science, Institution for Social and Policy Studies, Lillian Goldman Law Library, Office of the Provost, Yale Center for Research Computing, and Yale University Library

Open To: Yale Faculty, Yale Postdoctoral Trainees, Yale Staff, Graduate & Professional, All Ages, Undergraduate
