Current projects

Researchers from IATEXT have been part of the teams of competitive research projects of the Spanish National Plan or of the Autonomous Governments, and of pre-competitive projects of the ULPGC's Own Program. They have also obtained funding for projects from both the British Academy (GB) and the US Federal Government through the National Endowment for Humanities program. IATEXT researchers have participated as promoters and leaders of these projects, but have also collaborated in research projects in several Spanish universities (University of La Laguna, University of Seville, Complutense University of Madrid, University of Alcalá, University of the Basque Country / Euskal Herriko Unibersitatea, etc.)
