I have a BA in Hebrew Studies from Warsaw University, in Poland, and an MA in Translation Studies from Stockholm University. I am currently a PhD candidate at University of Stockholm, where I work under the supervision of profs Elisabet Tiselius and Birgitta Englund Dimitrova. In my project, I am looking at disfluencies in dialogue interpreting as possible signals (rather than symptoms) of cognitive load management. My other research interests include human communication, pragmatics, and indirect translation.

After getting my first degree in linguistics from the University of St. Petersburg (Russia) and my MA in Conference Interpreting from the University of Mainz (Germersheim, Germany) I have been working as freelance interpreter and translator in Russia and in Europe. In 2017 I started teaching conference interpreting at ISIT (Paris), and later at IALT (Leipzig) and INTRAWI (Innsbruck). I am now based in Berlin but from 2021 I will be working on my PhD project in Innsbruck. My research interests are: didactics of interpretation, exercises and drills, corpus-based translation studies and cognitive linguistics.

I am a PhD candidate at the Department of Translation and Interpreting from the University of Granada (Spain). I am interested in cognitive and innovative approaches to both the production and reception processes of audio description, an accessibility service which makes the visual verbal mainly for blind and partially sighted people.  As a member of the TRACCE research group, I have already participated in one teaching innovation project and three regional and national research projects.

I’m Zhiqiang Du, a Chinese Ph.D. student and a member of the MC2 Lab at the University of Bologna. Under the supervision of Prof. Ricardo Munoz Martin and Victoria LEI Lai Cheng, I’m working on a comparative analysis of interpreters’ information search and management behavior during the preparation and delivery of SI, especially in the field of terminology management. My Ph.D. project is to propose and conduct an empirical, contrastive study on advanced terminological tools vs traditional methods to identify their impact on the quality of simultaneous interpreting by adopting keystroke logging, screen recording, and transcription. Besides, I strongly hold the view that technology will change our interpreting industry significantly and interpreters cannot live without technology. As Bill Wood said, interpreters will never be replaced by technology. They will be replaced by interpreters who use technology. Now, from here, I’d like to learn and share what I’ve learned.

After working more years than I care to remember as a translator lecturer, translator, subtitler, dubbing translator and -sometimes- as interpreter in Chile, I decided it was time to search for answers and address many doubtful statements made in the translation literature. I studied English, Portuguese and Spanish translation at the University of Santiago, Chile, and a Master in Translation and Interpreting Research at the Universitat Jaume I, Spain. Currently I am a PhD candidate in translation at the University of Bologna, Italy. My research interests focus on the empirical study of translation processes from the perspective of Cognitive Translatology. I am also interested in cognitive audiovisual translation, particularly in accessibility.

I am currently living in Stockholm, Sweden, pursuing my PhD at the Institute for Interpreting and Translation Studies at Stockholm University. I also work as an interpreter between Swedish and Spanish in the public sector in Stockholm. I have always been intrigued by what happens in the “black box” during interpreting. I will investigate language proficiency in public service interpreting, with a special focus on cognitive aspects. I have two supervisors, Magnus Dahnberg and Elisabet Tiselius. When I am not conducting research I tend to read a lot and meet up with my friends and family.
