Richard Lemoine-Rodriguez is a Postdoctoral Research Fellow in the English Linguistics department at the Institute of Modern Languages, University of Würzburg. His unique interdisciplinary position bridges traditional linguistics with advanced geospatial analysis through the emerging field of Geolingual Studies, which examines the interconnection between language patterns and physical urban spaces. His educational background reflects this interdisciplinary approach, holding a Dr. rer. nat. in Geography from Ruhr-Universität Bochum (dissertation: "Urban form, urban warming and time. From global regularities to local heterogeneities"), a Master in Geography from the National Autonomous University of Mexico (thesis on urban conurbations in Morelia), and a Bachelor in Biology from the University of Veracruz (thesis on vegetation cover changes in Xalapa). Lemoine-Rodriguez's research integrates concepts from urban ecology, geoinformatics, and digital humanities to study cities as complex socio-ecological systems. His primary interests include urban form, social perception, urban big data, urban heat island effects, remote sensing, and the relationship between linguistic patterns and spatial organization. He approaches cities as complex systems where physical and social dimensions interact, aiming to uncover patterns that can inform more sustainable urban development. His work often employs large-scale spatial analysis of social media data to understand how people interact with and perceive urban environments. His recent publications (2024-2025) reveal a strong focus on the intersection of urban morphology, social media analytics, and climate impacts. He has developed innovative methods for analyzing geotagged social media content to understand urban concerns, particularly regarding heat exposure. His work on "Geolingual Studies" represents a novel approach combining linguistics with remote sensing to assess how physical and social spaces interrelate. The publication pattern shows increasing international collaboration, particularly with researchers from Germany, Mexico, and other global partners. As a developer of research tools, he co-created LSTtools, an R package for processing thermal data from Landsat and MODIS images, demonstrating his technical expertise in geospatial analysis. He is actively involved in multiple professional networks including the Global Land Programme, Ecosystem Services Partnership, Society for Urban Ecology, and the International Association for Urban Climate, reflecting the interdisciplinary nature of his work. Lemoine-Rodriguez teaches in the Spatio-temporal dynamics of urban systems and the EAGLE Master program at the University of Würzburg, sharing his expertise in geospatial analysis and urban studies. He has previously taught courses on GIS modeling, remote sensing, and spatial analysis at institutions including Ruhr-Universität Bochum and the National Autonomous University of Mexico.

Alain Ausoni is a researcher (MER 1) at the School of French as a Foreign Language within the Faculty of Arts at the University of Lausanne (UNIL), a position he has held since August 2018. His academic journey includes a Master's in Comparative Literature from the University of Kent and a doctorate from the University of Oxford as a Berrow Scholar. He previously studied at UNIL and holds a teaching diploma from HEP-VD. His research focuses on multilingualism in literature and the teaching of spoken French in FLE contexts. He is particularly known for his work on translingual writing—autobiographical practices by non-native French authors—and for developing pedagogical tools for oral comprehension. His recent book Mémoires d'outre-langue (2018) explores this theme in depth. He co-created the digital platform FLORALE (florale.unil.ch) with Christian Surcouf, a corpus-based resource for teaching spoken French, supported by the Educational Innovation Fund. The trends in his scholarly publications reveal a sustained engagement with translingual autobiography, oral language variation in French, and innovative FLE pedagogy. His works analyze how learners comprehend spontaneous spoken French and how literary authors navigate identity across languages. He has also contributed to the historical understanding of oral corpus use in language teaching. Alain Ausoni was supported by an SNSF mobility grant during his postdoctoral fellowship at the École normale supérieure de Paris, completed in January 2019. He has not received any explicitly mentioned scientific awards in the provided texts. He has not listed any students or advising roles. He is involved in digital educational innovation through the FLORALE project, which represents a significant contribution to applied linguistics and language teaching methodology.
