About
I’m Nilo Pedrazzini (IPA: [ˈniˑlo pedraˈtːsiˑni], or something like knee-law pay-drah-tsee-knee). Born and raised in bleak Sesto San Giovanni, in Northern Italy, I’ve been living in the UK since 2014.
I’m a Turing Research Fellow at The Alan Turing Institute. I recently obtained my PhD in Linguistics from the University of Oxford, with a thesis on Early Slavic participle clauses and temporal subordination in typological perspective.
I was previously a Research Software Engineer at Oxford, within the Digital Scholarship @ Oxford project (DiSc), and a Research Associate at the Turing Institute, within the Living with Machines project.
