Selected publications (level 2 journals and/or publishers) are listed under "Publications"; a complete publication list can be viewed in Cristin (Current Research Information System in Norway).
I am Associate Professor in Applied Linguistics at the Centre for Academic and Professional Communication (NTNU), where I currently teach and research various areas of science communication. I am particularly interested in how linguistic research can help us understand and address challenges in science communication, both on an individual and societal level.
One of the most exciting aspects of my position is teaching final-year Master students and PhD candidates in STEM disciplines how to communicate their research with different stakeholders; how to become aware of and contribute to current discourses relating to their research areas. This work both draws on and informs my research within cognitive linguistics (especially metaphorical conceptualizations of critical global issues), phraseology (including schematic constructions and sentence templates), scientific writing, and English for Academic Purposes.
Since most of my courses and workshops are taught to international classes, I am also proud to host and mentor incoming English Teaching Assistants within the US Fulbright Program.
My formal training is primarily in language research and language pedagogy from the perspective of usage-based linguistics; I also have a background in biology. I received my PhD in Applied Linguistics from the University of Groningen (2013) under the supervision of Prof. Kees de Bot and Prof. Marjolin Verspoor. Before joining NTNU in 2017 I was a Postdoctoral Researcher at MultiLing, a multidisciplinary research Centre of Excellence at the University of Oslo. Prior to that, I held positions in TESOL/Applied Linguistics and EMI teacher training, in Norway (OsloMet/HiOA), the Netherlands (University of Groningen / UMCG) and in the Czech Republic (Masaryk University).
Academic interests, teaching, and supervision areas: second/foreign language acquisition, Cognitive Linguistics, Construction Grammar, usage-based linguistics, Science Communication, academic writing, scientific research writing, English as a Medium of Instruction (EMI), Teaching English as a Second or Foreign Language (TESOL/TEFL)
