Biography
I teach and do research in the fields of translation, lexicography and assisted writing. I am particularly interested in corpus linguistics applications in these domains. My projects include:
ColloCaid (Principal Investigator): a project funded by AHRC that combines research into user needs, lexical computing and human-computer interaction to develop a text editor that supports writers with real-time collocation suggestions.
COMPARA (Joint Project Leader): a 3-million word, open-access, bidirectional corpus of English and Portuguese fiction funded initially by the Portuguese Foundation of Science and Technology, then by a series of grants by the Portuguese Government and the EU as part of the Linguateca project.
Oxford Portuguese Dictionary (Chief Editor): a corpus-based 70K word bilingual English-Portuguese and Portuguese-English dictionary with thousands of example sentences and translations based on real language usage.
Supporting the Internationalization of Brazilian Research (Lead UK partner): a series of workshops on the use of language and translation technologies to assist Brazilian researchers promote their research internationally, while simultaneously training academic English tutors in Brazil.

Find the words you need...
Principal Investigator of ColloCaid, a 36-month project funded by AHRC-UK to carry out research on combining learner needs, lexicographic data and digital writing environments. Together with researchers from Bangor University and AMU (Poland), we used computational lexicography and visualization techniques in the development of a writing assistant to help users of English for Academic Purposes with collocations.
This collaboration between the University of Surrey and São Paulo State University (UNESP) and Federal University of Rio Grange do Sul (UFRGS) in Brazil promoted a series of workshops in 2019 aimed at empowering Brazilian researchers and EAP tutors in the development of autonomy in written academic English through state-of-the-art language tools. The workshops were supported by the British Council UK-Brazil collaboration, Sketch Engine, Santander Universities-UNESP and the Language without Borders programme. In the media.
Between 2011 and 2015, I was Chief Editor of the Oxford Portuguese Dictionary, leading an international team of editors and translators working on the Portuguese section of the dictionary. With over 70,000 headwords, 320,000 translations, and thousands of contextualized examples of usage, the Oxford Portuguese Dictionary is the largest existing corpus-based, single volume, English-Portuguese and Portuguese-English dictionary. The online version of the dictionary is regularly updated with new words and usages.
Between 1999 and 2008, I was Principal Investigator of COMPARA, an open-access, 3-million-word bidirectional parallel corpus of published fiction in English and Portuguese. COMPARA was part of the Linguateca project, funded by the European Union and the Portuguese Government.
