Melody Wang
Second year PhD student

Melody Wang is a graduate student in the Department of Linguistics at Harvard, whose main research interests are phonology, prosody, phonetics and their interfaces. She is also interested in philosophy of language and linguistics. Melody’s work balances both theoretical and experimental phonology: on the experimental side, she is most interested in testing out various phonological theories (e.g. the learnability bias of opacity) and on the theoretical side, she works primarily on prosodic structure and its interface with morphology. Before arriving at Harvard, Melody received a BA from University College London and an MPhil from University of Cambridge.
