I am a permanent researcher at the University of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU). I am also teaching in undergraduate and graduate programs. My research is focused on studying representation of both languages in the brain of bilinguals. In 2006 I obtained my PhD in Linguistics at the UPV/EHU. The dissertation was written in Basque and I tackled with principal aspects of the linguistic theory by means of techniques coming from neurocognitive science. Then, I was hired by the Cognitive Neuroimaging Unit (INSERM-U562). My contract was related to an European project whose final goal was to inquire the origins of language and communication. In 2008, I came back to the UPV/EHU with my second postdoc and I continued studying differences in word order linearization through bilingual populations by means o neuroimaging techniques. I coordinated the MA program in Linguistics (UPV/EHU), and I am part of the Academic Committee of the PhD program in Linguistics (UPV/EHU).
