Giuliana Garzone

Giuliana Garzone serves as Associate Professor of English at IULM University in Milan, where she has established a distinguished career in translation studies, specialized discourse analysis, and intercultural communication. Her academic profile reflects deep expertise in bridging theoretical linguistics with practical applications across legal, medical, and business contexts.

Her research focuses on translation and interpreting methodologies, English for Specific Purposes (ESP), legal discourse structures, and the application of text linguistics to professional communication. She investigates how digital platforms transform genre conventions, particularly examining LinkedIn professional networks, surrogacy discourses, and medical communication. Her work consistently addresses intercultural dimensions in management communication and technological impacts on language teaching, especially in phonetics and phonology.

Recent publications demonstrate a clear trajectory toward analyzing digital communication ecosystems, with significant contributions to understanding surrogacy discourses across biomedical, legal, and social media contexts. Her scholarship reveals how professional genres evolve on platforms like LinkedIn while maintaining core communicative functions, and how specialized knowledge transfers between scientific, legislative, and public spheres.

Garzone actively contributes to academic discourse through editorial work on specialized journals and edited volumes addressing genre theory, professional communication, and cross-cultural mediation. Her research program integrates corpus linguistics, discourse analysis, and sociolinguistic approaches to examine real-world language use in increasingly digitalized professional environments.
