Vitor Miguez Rego is an Assistant Professor at the Department of Galician Philology, Faculty of Philology, University of Santiago de Compostela. He is affiliated with the Galician Language Institute (ILG) and the research group FILGA (Galician Philology and Linguistics). He holds a Doctorate from the University of Santiago de Compostela, awarded in 2021 for his thesis on epistemic modality in Galician adverbs.

His research focuses on Galician grammar through corpus linguistics, emphasizing modality systems, syntactic alternations, and the interplay between grammar and pragmatics. Notable contributions include a monograph on epistemic adverbs in Galician (John Benjamins, 2024) and multifactorial analyses of mood alternations in adverbs of uncertainty. His work spans theoretical linguistics, historical semantics, and sociolinguistic aspects of Iberian language contact.

Recent publications explore lexical frequency patterns in Galician corpora, diachronic changes in adverb semantics, and syntactic parameters in prepositional complements. He actively contributes to corpus development projects like CORGA and CORTEGAL, advancing tools for linguistic analysis in Galician and beyond.
