SANTESTEBAN INSAUSTI

I received my B.A. degree in Basque Philology in 1999 at the University of the Basque Country UPV/EHU. In 2000 I was awarded a PhD fellowship from the Basque Government and I enrolled in the Language and Cognitive Science PhD program at the University of Barcelona, where I received my PhD in 2006 with the thesis entitled Lexical representation and selection in bilingual speech production. In 2006 I started my post-doctoral career in the Language Cognition and Communication Research Group of the Department of Psychology (University of Edinburgh, UK), funded by the Spanish Government (2006-2007). In 2007 I was awarded a Marie Curie Intra-European Fellowship to work with Prof. Martin J. Pickering. Since January 2010 I have been working in The Bilingual Mind research group (Dept. of Linguistics and Basque Studies, University of the Basque Country, UPV/EHU) as a Juan de la Cierva (2010-2013), as a Research Fellow (2013-2014), and as a Ramón y Cajal research fellow (2014-2019). Since 2020 I am a Permanent Research Fellow (see here my full CV).
