Oliver Czulo
Oliver Czulo (obs. Čulo) is a professor in Translation studies at Leipzig University. Until March 2017, he held an Assistant Professor ("Juniorprofessor") position for Translation-relevant Linguistics at the Translation faculty at the University of Mainz in Germersheim. He attended Saarland University, where he received his diploma in Computational linguistics and his PhD in Applied Linguistics. His thesis work focused on developing ways of automatically comparing verb valence between English and German using parallel corpora. During a one-year stay at ICSI at the University of California in Berkeley in 2011 and 2012, he worked with researchers in the FrameNet Project, who are building a lexical database based on frame semantic analyses. He is interested in how grammar and semantics interact in translation, and how digitalisation affects various modes of multilingual communication.
