Sylvain Detey is Associate Professor of Applied Linguistics and French Studies at Waseda University, and was formerly Maître de Conférences at the University of Rouen. His current research interests lie in the use of oral corpora for language education and the role of variation and multimodality in second language phonology acquisition. He is one of the coordinators of the research project Phonology of Contemporary French (Phonologie du Français Contemporain, PFC) and co-editor of Les variétés du français parlé dans l'espace francophone. Ressources pour l'enseignement (2010).
Jacques Durand is Emeritus Professor of Linguistics at the University of Toulouse - Jean Jaurès and an Emeritus Member of the Institut Universitaire de France. His extensive publications are mainly in phonology (general and as applied to English and French). He is the co-founder of the PFC research project, editor of the OUP series 'The Phonology of the World's Languages' and co-editor of The Oxford Handbook of Corpus Phonology (OUP 2014).
Bernard Laks is Professor of Linguistics at the University of Paris Ouest Nanterre La Défense (Research Laboratory MoDyCo UMR 7114) and a Member of the Institut Universitaire de France. Until 2012, he was Vice President (Research) of that university and formerly a researcher at the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS). His research and extensive publications mainly address phonology, formal and cognitive linguistics, the history of linguistics, and cognitive sciences. Since 2000 he has been co-director of the PFC research project.
Chantal Lyche is Professor of French Linguistics at the University of Oslo. She has published widely on French phonology and is the co-founder of the PFC research project. Her research has focused most recently on varieties of French spoken outside France, particularly in Switzerland, Louisiana, Mauritius, and Africa. She is the co-author of a standard textbook on the phonology of French and is actively involved in the teaching of French as a foreign language.
