About me
I'm a "distinguished" Maria Galindo senior researcher, with a grant of the Spanish Science Ministry (awarded in 2020) in the Philosophy Department, University of Barcelona, and a researcher with the LOGOS Group and the BIAP - Barcelona Institute for Analytic Philosophy. I'm also an associate member of LanCog Group at the University of Lisbon-
I specialize in philosophy of language, and work also in metaethics, feminist philosophy, and legal and social philosophy.
My recent work focuses on disagreement and conflicts, evaluative and normative discourse, including pejoratives, hate speech, and on the interaction between language and social reality.
I received my PhD in Philosophy from Stirling. I also studied at the Universities of Lisbon (BA/Licenciatura), and St. Andrews (MLitt).

Some News
Starting in January, I am a Senior Researcher with a Beatriz Galindo 2020 grant. In the 2020 call, only 40 Senior positions were awarded in the whole country, across all academic and scientific areas.
A note about the woman naming the grant:
Beatriz Galindo, sometimes spelled Beatrix, (c.1465 – 23 November 1534), was born in Salamanca. She was a Spanish Latinist and educator. She was a writer, humanist and a teacher of Queen Isabel of Castile and her children. She was one of the most educated women of her time. She was also known as "La Latina."
