Rosa M. Rodríguez Porto is Ramón y Cajal Fellow at the University of Santiago de Compostela and Adjunct Associate Professor at the Faculty of Humanities of the University of Southern Denmark. Before re-joining her alma mater USC, she developed her career in The Netherlands, Finland, the UK and Denmark.
