Aidan Sharma

I’m a fourth year Linguistics PhD student at Rutgers University. I work on Eastern Indo-Aryan languages (primarily Magahi) and Central Asian Turkic languages (primarily Kazakh). My theoretical interests are mostly in syntax and semantics, but I have done some P-side work as well.

At Rutgers, I’m a member of the Meaning Across Languages Lab run by Dorothy Ahn and the Fieldwork Lab run by Maria Kouneli and Ryan Walter Smith.

Before Rutgers, I did my undergrad in math at UCLA, where I was also a member of the Russian Flagship Program. For the overseas portion of the program, I studied Russian for a summer then later a full academic year through Al-Farabi Kazakh National University.
