<p class="MsoNormal">This seminar series is run by Andrea Farina and Mathilde Bru (King’s College London) and is aimed at PhD students and early career researchers. The purpose of this seminar series is to bring together researchers working on historical linguistics
with a quantitative approach, and to discuss current avenues of research in this topic. We hope that these seminars will nurture international collaboration and establish academic ties among researchers working on similar topics in this field.<o:p></o:p></p>
