Bio
Anna Ghimenton is a Professor at Université Grenoble Alpes and is affiliated with the Lidilem Research Lab. She teaches General Linguistics, Language Acquisition, and Socialization to undergraduate and graduate students in Grenoble. Her research focuses on various facets of language socialization. She has published in numerous handbooks (e.g., Handbook of Bilingualism, Handbook of Language and Mobility, Handbook of Romance Sociolinguistics) and journals (e.g., Journal of Child Language, Journal of Multilingual and Multicultural Development, Journal of Language, Identity & Education). Using ethnographically informed approaches to language acquisition and socialization, she combines both quantitative and qualitative methods. These complementary approaches enable her to investigate how children and adolescents acquire socially meaningful language practices.
