Irene de la Cruz Pav\u00eda ocupa una doble posici\u00f3n en la Universidad de Deusto (Espa\u00f1a). Por un lado, es una Investigadora Ikerbasque (Ikerbasque Research Fellow) y, por otro, es Investigadora Ram\u00f3n y Cajal del Ministerio de Ciencia, Innovaci\u00f3n y Universidades (Espa\u00f1a).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

De la Cruz Pav\u00eda pertenece al equipo de investigaci\u00f3n Comunicaci\u00f3n de la Facultad de Ciencias Sociales y Humanas de la Universidad de Deusto, y dirige el laboratorio reci\u00e9n creado Language Acquisition and Processing Lab (LAPlab). Es Licenciada en Ling\u00fc\u00edstica por la Universidad Complutense de Madrid (Espa\u00f1a), Licenciada en Filolog\u00eda Alemana por la Universidad del Pa\u00eds Vasco- Euskal Herriko Unibertsitatea-UPV-EHU (Espa\u00f1a) y Doctora en Ling\u00fc\u00edstica por la misma universidad. Desarroll\u00f3 su investigaci\u00f3n postdoctoral en la University of British Columbia (Canad\u00e1) y en la Universit\u00e9 Paris Descartes (Francia) con una beca postdoctoral Marie Curie (Marie Curie IOF postdoctoral fellowship), y posteriormente en la Universidad degli Studi di Padova (Italia). En 2020 retorna al Pa\u00eds Vasco como Investigadora Principal de un proyecto financiado por la Agencia Estatal de Investigaci\u00f3n.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Su investigaci\u00f3n se enmarca en el campo de la psicoling\u00fc\u00edstica, y se especializa en la adquisici\u00f3n y procesamiento del lenguaje\u2014y en especial de la estructura\u2014a lo largo de la vida. En su trabajo emplea t\u00e9cnicas conductuales y de neurociencia (fNIRS, EEG), para estudiar poblaciones mono- y biling\u00fces. De la Cruz Pav\u00eda ha demostrado que los beb\u00e9s de tan s\u00f3lo unos meses de vida detectan con gran facilidad la estructura de est\u00edmulos muy variados, tales como el habla, la lengua de signos o patrones visuales abstractos como los mosaicos. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

En su investigaci\u00f3n m\u00e1s reciente examina el impacto de las condiciones degradadas que caracterizan a la se\u00f1al producida por los implantes cocleares actuales en las habilidades de los beb\u00e9s para segmentar el habla en palabras, tarea crucial en la comprensi\u00f3n del lenguaje. En paralelo, investiga los cambios derivados del envejecimiento saludable en nuestras habilidades ling\u00fc\u00edsticas y las consecuencias cognitivas y ling\u00fc\u00edsticas de envejecer siendo un hablante biling\u00fce.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Irene de la Cruz Pav\u00eda is an Ikerbasque Research Fellow at the University of Deusto (Spain) and a Ram\u00f3n y Cajal Researcher funded by the Spanish Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

De la Cruz Pav\u00eda is a member of the Communication research team in the Faculty of Social and Human Sciences at the University of Deusto and leads the newly created Language Acquisition and Processing Lab (LAPlab). She holds a degree in Linguistics from the Complutense University of Madrid (Spain), a degree in German Philology from the University of the Basque Country \u2013 Euskal Herriko Unibertsitatea (UPV-EHU, Spain), and a PhD in Linguistics from the same university. She conducted her postdoctoral research at the University of British Columbia (Canada) and the Universit\u00e9 Paris Descartes (France) with a Marie Curie IOF postdoctoral fellowship, followed by further research at the University of Padua (Italy). In 2020, she returned to the Basque Country as the Principal Investigator of a project funded by the Spanish State Research Agency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Her research falls within the field of psycholinguistics, specialising in language acquisition and processing\u2014particularly linguistic structure\u2014throughout the lifespan. Her work employs behavioural and neuroscience techniques (fNIRS, EEG) to study both monolingual and bilingual populations. De la Cruz-Pav\u00eda has demonstrated that infants just a few months old can easily detect structural patterns in a wide range of stimuli, including speech, sign language, and abstract visual patterns such as mosaics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Her most recent research examines the impact of degraded auditory conditions\u2014characteristic of the signals produced by current cochlear implants\u2014on infants\u2019 ability to segment speech into words, a crucial process in language comprehension. At the same time, she investigates how healthy ageing affects linguistic abilities, as well as the cognitive and linguistic consequences of ageing as a bilingual speaker.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
