I am a Full Professor in the Department of English and German Studies at the Faculty of Arts, Universidad de Zaragoza (Spain). My research has primarily focused on the analysis of discursive and lexicogrammatical features of written academic genres from the perspectives of intercultural rhetoric and English as a Lingua Franca, as well as on pragmatic approaches to translation studies. My current research interests centre on the investigation of digital communicative practices within scientific communities.

My research has been published in international journals such as English for Specific Purposes, Journal of Pragmatics, Text & Talk, Journal of English as a Lingua Franca, and Discourse, Context & Media, among others. I have co-edited four volumes on pragmatics, translation, and written academic discourse, as well as a special issue of the Journal of
English for Academic Purposes. More recently, I have co-edited three special issues on scientific digital communication: Disseminating Knowledge (European Journal of English Studies, 2020), Scientific and Parascientific Communication (Publications, 2022) and Mediating Scientific Knowledge for Diverse Audiences on Digital Platforms (Discourse, Context and Media, 2025), as well as the book Recontextualising Expert Knowledge: The Process, Practices and Aims of Digital Dissemination (Routledge, 2026).

Together with Dr Pilar Mur-Dueñas, I co-coordinate the national research project Processes of Recontextualisation in the Transfer of Knowledge: A Pragmatic, Linguistic and Multimodal Study of Digital Scientific Discourse for Dissemination Purposes (SciDis) (PID2021-122303NB-100). I am also a member of the research group CIRES (Intercultural
Communication and Societal Challenges), funded by the Government of Aragón, and of the Research Institute of Employment, Digital Society and Sustainability (IEDIS).
