Hi! I’m a third year PhD student in the Department of Cognitive, Linguistic and Psychological Sciences at Brown University. I’m interested in understanding how children and adults represent - or learn to represent - complex meanings in their mind. I’m especially interested in abstract logical expressions (broadly defined) and learnability problems. At Brown, I’m advised by Roman Feiman and affiliated with the BLT lab.
Before coming to Brown, I was an undergraduate studying Linguistics and Statistical & Data Sciences at Smith College. At Smith, I worked with Jill de Villiers on language acquisition and assessment.
My name
IPA: /\(jɛnwan \; ʈʂu\)/
- All segments in my first name exist in English
- My last name is similar to the first syllable of juice ( /\(ʤuː\)/).
