Welcome!

I am an Associate Professor at the Université Paris Cité working in the ALTAE linguistics lab.

My research focuses on language as a dynamic system, both cognitive and social. I work in usage-based cognitive linguistics, especially Construction Grammar, as well as sociolinguistics and English dialectology, with a particular interest in language variation and change. My approach is empirical and data-driven, relying on quantitative and computational methods, and many of my projects are also methodological, for instance on the use of large language models in linguistic research.

You can contact me at cameron.morin@u-pariscite.fr.

Thank you for your visit!
