SHORT BIO
I'm a postdoctoral researcher at Télécom-Paris working with Chloé Clavel and Matthieu Labeau. My broad research area is Natural Language Processing, and more concretely I am working on Computational Lexical Semantics. I did my PhD at the LISN lab (former LIMSI), Paris-Saclay University, under the supervision of Marianna Apidianaki and Alexandre Allauzen. My thesis, defended in June 2021, addresses the representation of different aspects of word meaning in neural language models. I completed my Bachelor’s degree in Linguistics at the University of Barcelona in 2015. During my studies, I spent half a year in Saint Petersburg, Russia, with a generous Eranet-Mundus Mobility scholarship. After that, I followed the Erasmus Mundus Master Language and Communication Technologies, which took me to Saarland University (Saarbrücken, Germany) and the University of Malta (Msida, Malta), for a year each.
