Richard Hatcher is a post-doctoral researcher at Hanyang Institute for Phonetics and Cognitive Sciences. He recently received his PhD in Linguistics from the State University of New York at Buffalo in the summer of 2022, with a dissertation entitled "the Phonetics and Phonology of Cayuga Prosody." His research involves the phonetic documentation and description of prosodic features of less studied Iroquoian languages, including Cayuga, Seneca, and Oneida as well as the development of tools to assist in such linguistic documentation. He is currently investigating tonal alignment in Seoul Korean.

Dae-yong Lee is a postdoctoral researcher at Hanyang Institute for Phonetics and Cognitive Sciences. He received his PhD in Linguistics from the University of Oregon, with a dissertation entitled “Factors that Affect Generalization of Adaptation”. Dae-yong is interested in the cognitive processes underlying speech perception and production. He is especially interested in mechanisms underlying adaption and generalization to unfamiliar speech and factors that affect the initiation and maintenance of clear speech.

Sejin Oh is a post-doctoral researcher at Hanyang Institute for Phonetics and Cognitive Sciences. She received her PhD in Linguistics from The graduate Center, CUNY in 2022, with a dissertation entitled “ Incomplete Neutralization in Articulatory Phonology”. As a phonetician and a laboratory phonologist, her research program has focused on questions about the interface of phonology and phonetics at both higher and lower levels of the prosodic hierarchy. Using a combination of experimental and theoretical approaches, her research spans various phonetically-interesting phonological phenomena such as vowel reduction, complex segmenthood, incomplete neutralization, and resyllabification.
