Proud and excited to share that today I've been appointed as a full professor! 🎉 This is far from a solo achievement. I owe a huge thank you to many people and especially to @AnetteMFrank and #ManfredPinkal, who provided constant support and encouragement along this long way. 🙏

While I am still on X, do I know people who would be willing to serve as emergency area chairs or reviewers in the current ARR cycle (mostly semantics)?
(In other news, you will find me here in the future: bsky.app/profile/microth.bsk…)

For anyone interested, here is the program of the CoMeDi workshop at COLING: comedinlp.github.io/#program (assuming that @barbara_plank will get a speaker permit 😉)

TIL: Invited speakers for workshops in the UAE need a speaker permit. If this requirement is not fulfilled, the whole workshop will be shut down. It's a very liberal host country, as long as you comply with their rules.

I will soon be hiring PhDs/postdocs for a new university lab in Germany! If you have strong CL/NLP skills and are interested in modeling implicit/underspecified language, misunderstandings, or commonsense vs. individual background knowledge, let's connect. Please DM me or RT! :)

What I can already say: The position is for 3 1 years, involves limited teaching and flexibility in research topic. PhD students will be part of a graduate school; postdocs will be mentored in developing their own research agenda. An existing focus on NLP/CL will be required.
