Laura Davies Brenier’s research focuses on sign languages and (D/d)eaf cultures and experiences in the Slavic world. She is primarily interested in signed morphosyntax and cheremics (phonemics). Much of her research on Slavic sign languages is concentrated in the Czech Republic and Russia. She is also interested in animacy and animacy hierarchies across spoken Slavic languages, as well as various features of borderland dialects including "po naszymu" in Český Těšín and Polski Cieszyn, and Upper and Lower Sorbian in Germany.
