Andrea Celeste Mojedano Batel is a Research Associate at the Aston Institute for Forensic Linguistics within Aston University's College of Business and Social Sciences, Department of Communication and Culture. Her work bridges theoretical linguistics with forensic applications, focusing on cognitive organization of language.

Research interests:

• Syntax-semantics interface and grammatical change
• Diachronic and synchronic language evolution
• Idiolectal stability across communicative genres
• Native dialect influence detection in second-language writing

Her recent publications reveal a strong focus on Spanish linguistic structures, particularly 'liking' constructions and epistemic modality. The research demonstrates interdisciplinary connections between historical linguistics, forensic authorship analysis, and computational dialect detection, with increasing emphasis on practical forensic applications since 2020.
