Dr Julien Meyer, the leading expert in the area of whistled languages, has recently joined the CNRS GIPSA Laboratory in Grenoble, France having worked for years in Amazonia in Brazil. Dr Meyer began his research on languages in 2002, when he entered the linguistic doctoral programme at Lumière University Lyon 2, in the area of Cognitive Sciences. During the COFUND phase at Lyon’s Collegium, he wrote a book: "Whistled languages – A worldwide inquiry about whistled speech", which is based on an impressive first-hand experience of whistled languages in various parts of the world (France, Spain, Greece, Turkey, Thailand, Laos, Mexico, Brazil, Morocco, …) and is now considered to be the reference book of the domain. He also launched several international collaborations, including some between the Linguistics division of the Museu Goeldi, his former Brazilian host institution, and several research institutions in France, all the while being very active publishing articles, participating in conferences and giving talks. After his COFUND fellowship, Dr Meyer was granted an Individual Marie-Skłodowska-Curie Fellowship that enabled him to work on the Iconicity and Ecology of languages.
