Biography

Education and academic career

Born on 13 June 1969 in Seville,[1] she studied history—with a focus on economic and social history—at the University of Seville (licenciate) and the University of Lyon (Magister degree), becoming a visiting grantee at the London School of Economics and a doctoral researcher at the European University Institute (EUI).[2][3] In 1998, she obtained a PhD at the EUI with a thesis titled Familia y Mercado. El género en el proceso de industrialización de la fábrica de tabacos de Sevilla, 1887-1945 and supervised by Olwen Hufton.[3] After teaching at the University of Reading (1998–2001), the University of Seville (2001), and the Charles III University of Madrid (2001–2004),[3] she joined the Pablo de Olavide University (UPO), holding the chair of History and Economic Institutions and, from 2007 to 2012, the Vice-Rectorate of Post-Graduate Studies and Permanent Formation.[4]

Political activity

A non-partisan considered to spouse political views to the left of the mainstream of the Spanish Socialist Workers' Party (PSOE) and close to Podemos,[3][5] Gálvez joined the Regional Government of Andalusia presided by Susana Díaz (PSOE) as independent in the cabinet reshuffle that followed the appointment of María Jesús Montero as Minister in the Government of Spain in June 2018,[6] with Gálvez assuming the portfolio of 'Knowledge, Research and University'.

Gálvez ran 3rd in the PSOE list (as independent) for the 2019 European election and was elected as Member of the European Parliament.[7][8] Incorporated to the Progressive Alliance of Socialists and Democrats (S&D) political group,[1] she has since been serving on the Committee on Industry, Research and Energy of the European Parliament. In addition to her committee assignments, she is a member of the delegation for relations with the United States.
