Anna Verbytska holds a PhD in Philological Sciences, specializing in Germanic Languages (equivalence officially recognized by the University of Granada in 2025), and is an Assistant Professor of English Language at the University Centre of Defense in Zaragoza (CUD-AGM). Her research activity follows a coherent and evolving line focused on the analysis of emotional conflict discourse in the media, progressively integrating computational methods.

She has been Principal Investigator in two competitive R&D projects (VolkswagenStiftung, Germany) dedicated to the study of emotional war narratives in news coverage, later extended to the analysis of polarization on social media. In the field of knowledge transfer and technological application, she was selected for the Science to Data Science (S2DS) Fellowship Bootcamp awarded by Pivigo Ltd. (United Kingdom), where she worked as a data scientist in a competitive applied research project with Deutsche Welle. In this project, she collaborated in the development of a thematic search engine and in the evaluation of tonal patterns in journalistic articles using advanced sentiment analysis techniques with NLP and machine learning.

Her research interests include media coverage, conflict narratives, emotional journalism, conceptual metaphors, and the application of language technologies—particularly natural language processing (NLP) and machine learning. She recently joined the research group LediCUDe (Language, Discourse, Culture and Defense), CUD-AGM in Zaragoza.
