Research Collaboration:
Work with Gerard Huet of the Institut national de recherche en informatique et automatique (INRIA) to develop a searchable corpus of Classical Sanskrit texts and the software to exploit them for research both on Sanskrit in particular and linguistics in general.

Publications:
