Another reason why understanding how #multilingualism and socio-economic opportunities are distributed across urban space. A lot of my research has been about exploring these aspects from a geographical perspective.
The link is in Finnish, but the title roughly says "Large-scale study: Linguistic competencies are linked to slowing down the aging of the brain."
Keeping my fingers crossed for positive funding decisions 🤞🎓🔎

Wow! 🥳🎊 I received a copy of a book we wrote a chapter for with @tuomo and Hanna-Mari Pienimäki.
It's one thing to see one's own work published on a website, but another feeling when you can hold it in your hand.
If you're interested in #multilingualism #sociolinguistics #UrbanStudies and #LinguisticLandscapes check out this book. Relevant also for #UrbanGeography #HumanGeography #GIScience and #multimodality 🤓
The #OpenAccess book is available here: https://oa.finlit.fi/site/books/e/10.21435/sflin.24/

Greetings! Marquette University Press is just getting established here. We’re looking forward to connecting with scholars and other readers interested in #philosophy, #theology, #history, #MedievalStudies, and other areas of the #humanities and social sciences, as well as regional studies relating to the city of #Milwaukee and state of #Wisconsin. Aligned with the mission of #Marquette University, we are also interested in interdisciplinary, #ethics-focused scholarship in the humanities, including in the areas of #UrbanStudies, #EnvironmentalHumanities, #DataEthics, #Communication, and #MediaStudies. We’re delighted to be here!
