(personal home page) Research ThemeInterestsI am a neuroscientist interested in the neural basis of language and semantic processing in monolingual and multilingual speakers. I completed my PhD on the cognitive and neural correlates of language production and executive functions in multilinguals, under the supervision of Prof. Albert Costa (Pompeu Fabra University, Barcelona). From this I have experience working with fMRI and EEG acquisition methods. In 2015 I was a postdoctoral scientist at the Basque Center for Cognition, Brain and Language (San Sebastian, Spain). After being awarded a Marie Curie Fellowship in 2016, I joined the University of Manchester and then the MRC Cognition and Brain Sciences Unit (University of Cambridge) to work with Prof. Matthew Lambon Ralph. In my current research I combine fMRI, EEG and TMS to investigate the neural basis of semantic cognition in naturalistic settings as well as language representation and control in multilingual speakers.
