About Me

I am a Postdoctoral Researcher and lecturer working at the Dept. of Specific Didactics (Faculty of Education and Psychology), at the Universitat de Girona, with the support of a Margarita Salas fellowship (funded by European Union-NextGenerationEU, Ministry of Universities and Recovery, Transformation and Resilience Plan, through a call from Universitat Pompeu Fabra, Barcelona). I am a research member of the GRECA (Institut de Recerca Educativa) at the Universitat de Girona and of the Prosodic Studies Group (GrEP) at the Universitat Pompeu Fabra.

​

My specific line of research focuses on the multimodal integration of gesture, speech, and prosody, and its significant role in children's language development (specifically, in oral linguistic abilities). Broadly speaking, I am interested in how multimodal communication supports teaching-learning processes, and in particular the development of cognitive and linguistic abilities in children.
