New! I co-organise the *SEM Shared Task 2012 on Resolving the Scope and Focus of Negation *SEM ST 2012.

New! The ExProM workshop 2012 was accepted to be colocated with ACL.

New! I gave a tutorial at IJCNLP 2011 on Modality and negation in natural language processing. The slides are available.

---------------------

I am a member of the CLiPS-Computational Linguistics research group at the University of Antwerp, where I work as a senior researcher on the BIOGRAPH project led by Walter Daelemans.

The BIOGRAPH project aims at putting forward a new methodology for text mining from heterogeneous information sources that will be used to assist researchers in ranking candidate disease causing genes. The final goal of the project is to show new results in mining for previously unknown relations between genes and phenotypes, and improved gene prioritisation finding non-obvious disease causing genes. It is a multidisciplinary project within the University of Antwerp carried out in collaboration with the research group AMG (Applied Molecular Genomics) from the Department of Molecular Genetics and with the ADReM research group of the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science.

I am also a guest researcher at the ILK research group at Tilburg University, where I worked as a postdoc researcher in the project Semi-automatic techniques for semantic role labeling applied to a Spanish corpus funded by the Spanish Ministry of Education. In this project I applied memory-based learning techniques to semantic role labeling and parsing in collaboration with Antal van den Bosch.

Previously, I worked for four years as a research assistant at Tilburg University where I got a PhD with a thesis entitled Computing meaning in interaction. My research in that period focused on dialogue analysis, modeling, and simulation. Before that I worked for four years as a lingware developer in companies that developed machine translation products for several language pairs. I graduated in Spanish Philology and in Linguistics at the University of Barcelona, where I also followed a PhD program in Language and Cognitive Science and wrote a PhD thesis on computer assisted vocabulary learning. Additionally, I have followed studies on Technical Engineering in Computer Systems at the Universitat Oberta de Catalunya.
