OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.

Quantitative approaches to language have opened up new pathways to understanding how the lexicon changes across the lifespan, from childhood to late life. In this talk, I’ll discuss recent and ongoing work in my lab using network science to investigate the structure, acquisition, and eventual decay of the lexicon across the lifespan. I will discuss projects on bilingual first language acquisition, memory loss in late life, and changes in free associations from early to late life.
