Abstract

MEMP (she/her) is a full tenured professor in European law at the University of Iceland, institution she joined in 207. Her main field of teaching is EU and EEA law as well as Economic International Law. She holds a 5 year law degree from Universidad Complutense (Madrid, Spain); a Masters of Law (D.E.A) from University Paris II-Assas (France), a Postgraduate Diploma in International Law from MacGeorge University (Sacramento, USA) and a Doctoral Degree (Doctora en Derecho cum laude) from University of Alcalá de Henares (Madrid, Spain). She has professional experience working as a lawyer in Spain, an editor of specialized books and a Legal Expert for the European Commission in Luxembourg (DG Consumer Policy and Official Publication Office). Her most recent research projects concern: 1) the effectiveness of EU-EEA law, main principles of European constitutional law (ie. primacy, equality and access to justice) and the protection of individual rights before national and European courts; and 2) European consumer credit law and the protection of Icelandic consumers in the field of financial services (both indexed-to-inflation mortgage loans and variable rates loans/non indexed). Over the years she has published several monographies, book chapters and articles in peer-reviewed journals, participated in Nordic/European research projects, taught in other European universities (ERASMUS), got research grants from important institutions (ie. Rannís, Iceland) and directed the thesis of some doctoral students (Icelandic and European). She has been a visiting scholar in leading institutions such as: Harvard University, Tufts University, University of Louvain-la-Neuve, and European University Institute (Fiesole, Italy). Her most important contributions to legal science is probably the entry on primacy/supremacy published online by Oxford Constitutional Law/Max Planck Encyclopedia of Comparative Constitutional Law (2017) and several articles published by Cambridge University Press online.
