Her work on the syntax and morphology of noun phrases and argument alternations has been published in multiple international journals, and she is the co-editor of the OUP volumes The Syntax of Roots and the Roots of Syntax (with Hagit Borer and Florian Schäfer; 2014) and External Arguments in Transitivity Alternations (with Elena Anagnostopoulou and Florian Schäfer; 2015). In 2014 she was awarded the Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz Prize by the German Research Foundation for excellence in research. Hagit Borer is a Professor of Linguistics at Queen Mary University of London. Her research involves the division of labour between the lexicon and syntax, and touches on morphosyntax as well as the syntax-semantics interface. She is the author of the three-volume work Structuring Sense: Volume 1, In Name Only (OUP 2005) focuses on nominal structure; Volume 2, The Normal Course of Events (OUP 2005) explores event structure; and Volume 3, Taking Form (OUP 2013) looks at morphosyntax and word formation. She was elected a Fellow of the British Academy in 2017.
