Career

Zaenen obtained her Ph.D. at Harvard University with her doctoral thesis Extraction Rules in Icelandic in 1980.[4] After a post doc at M.I.T. she taught syntax at the University of Pennsylvania, Harvard and Cornell University before joining PARC and Stanford.[3] During the 90s, she was the manager of the Natural Language group of the Xerox Research Centre Europe in Grenoble, France and has worked on both the syntax of Germanic languages and on the development of Lexical Functional Grammar (LFG), with excursions into lexical semantics.[1][3] Her contributions to the theory of Lexical Functional Grammar are in the development of notions such as long-distance dependencies, functional uncertainty and the difference between subsumption and equality.[1] She has had 27 scientific publications between 1996 and 2008,[5] and currently works on coreference and anaphora resolution, information structure and the analysis of temporal expressions for reasoning, as well as being the main editor of the online journal Linguistic Issues in Language Technology (LiLT).[1][3]
