One of the many reasons I love living in London. I get to see amazing people more often as they come through! From the US, from Hong Kong - keep coming back, friends!

I’ve so enjoyed being back in Japan since mid-April, but alas, my time is coming to an end and I return to London on Saturday. I’m always grateful that I can spend time here. Huge thanks to Waseda University’s Institute for Advanced Studies who hosted me!

Nice to launch the festive season with doctoral students, old and new, over to the flat for nibbles and drinks. I’m always so impressed with this bunch!

Absolutely brilliant seminar this evening for the UCL Centre for Applied Linguistics on algorithmic mining analysis using Natural Language Processing and Machine Learning techniques by this sociology team from Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznan. Reconceptualizing ‘reviewing the literature’!
