LORENZA MONDADA (Born in Locarno, 1963) is Professor of Linguistics at the
Department for Language Studies, University of Lyon 2 and Director of the ICAR research
lab (CNRS).
After studying at the University of Fribourg (1982-1986), she worked as a teaching and
research assistant at the universities of Lausanne, Fribourg and Neuchâtel. She spent a year in
Paris at EHESS (1991-1992) and completed her PhD in January 1994 (Univ. of Lausanne). In
1996, she spent a sabbatical semester in the Anthropology Department at the University of
California Berkeley. From 1996 to 2001, she was appointed Assistant Orofessor at the
University of Basel, where she obtained her Habilitation in 2000. While there, she directed a
research project on the interactional production of knowledge in plurilingual research teams,
based on extensive ethnographic fieldwork and data collection in various scientific and
medical departments. During this time, she became interested in talk at work and in
workplace practices, as well as in the ways in which grammar is both a resource for
interaction and emerges within its sequential organization. In 2001 she was awarded the
National Latsis Prize – a prize awarded annually in Switzerland to the top researcher under
40. She moved to Lyon in 2001 to take up a position as Professor in the Department of
Linguistics at the University of Lyon 2. In January 2007, she was appointed Director of the
ICAR Research Lab (a unit supported by CNRS). In Lyon, she have developed analyses of
the linguistic and multimodal resources for the sequential organization of interaction, along
with new projects on talk at work. Over the years, she spent fruitful research periods at
Universidade Estadual de Campinas (1996, 2001, 2006), Universität Bielefeld (1999-2000),
Instituto Nacional de Antropologia e Historia Mexico (2003), King's College London (2004),
Universitat Pompeu Fabra and Universitat Autonoma Barcelona (2004, 2006), Max Planck
Institute for Psycholinguistics Nijmegen (2005), and Helsingin Yliopisto (2006).
Her research deals with the grammatical and multimodal practices and resources mobilized by
participants in interaction. Current research is carried out on video-recordings from various
institutional and professional settings (in medical contexts as well as in other workplaces) and
on ordinary conversations, focusing on the ways in which participants sequentially and
multimodally organize their (often multiple) courses of action.
