Peers'N’Pubs brings you a little something for the summer.
We welcome Dr. Zed Sehyr as she unravels the first ever interactive vizualiation database for signed languages. Zed will be joined by her best friend Rachelle and she will be talking about her paper entitled:
The ASL-LEX 2.0 Project: A Database of Lexical and Phonological Properties for 2,723 Signs in American Sign Language
or as she puts it “An interactive visual database for American Sign Language reveals how signs are organized in the mind”
For a preview of the interactive database, visit here and pack a lunch!
This event will have live ASL interpreters, but if you want closed captioning, this is available by default on Facebook Live.

I'm a language scientist at San Diego State University, California. When not doing science, you will find me hiking or running outdoors or playing soccer. I live with my housemate, Matt, and we don't have any pets or plants together, but sometimes we make cool and silly art and drink beer.
