Her research interests have centred on semantics, pragmatics and the philosophy of language, and they naturally extend to cognitive science, psycholinguistics and the philosophy of mind. She is particularly interested in vagueness, the semantics/pragmatics interface, two-dimensional semantics, indexicality, de se attitudes and modality.
