José Elías-Ulloa is a formal linguist, whose specialization is phonology.
His main interests are the study of prosody (syllable weight, metrical
stress, intonation) and the interaction with segmental phenomena. In
particular, he studies the prosody of indigenous languages in contact with
Latin American Spanish as well as the varieties of Spanish that emerge
from that contact. He has conducted several fieldtrips in Peru, and
research on the Amazonian languages spoken there.
