After a postdoctoral fellowship at the University of Gothenburg in Sweden, where he worked in a project on valency-decreasing alternations in East Ruvu Bantu languages from TanzaniaBantUGent welcomes him back at the alma mater to continue his research on Kikongo. His research focuses on verbal morphology, morphosemantics and morphosyntax in Bantu languages, and more specifically on tense/aspect and valency, from a descriptive, comparative and historical perspective.
