Main current research projects at MPI-SHH:

• Sound Comparisons: databases and explorer websites for comparing phonetic diversity across language families around the world.  (Description) 
• IE-CoR: the first in a new breed of databases for exploring how languages within a family relate to each other in Cognate Relationships in their ‘core’ vocabulary. The CoR framework and online database explorer are tailored to serve both qualitative and quantitative/phylogenetic research purposes. IE-CoR already covers Indo-European, but the model is extendable to any language family. (Description)  
• A Cross-Disciplinary Prehistory of South America: Symposium Series and Publications
