Short Description: The aim of the international study day Linguistics and Economics: New Scenarios in the Age of Artificial Intelligence is to share ideas on how AI is conceived and possibly integrated into a given economic or linguistic space, and what role AI has or could have in the construction of such spaces, in light of the objectives of Agenda 2030. Proposals may address one or more of the above topics, from a diachronic or synchronic, historical or contemporary, theoretical or appl

Building on the success of the first edition, we are pleased to announce the call for papers for the 2nd International Conference on Language Research (CIIL2026).

Conference Topics: Proposals that fit the research lines of the Lingua Institute, organiser of CIIL26 (internal linguist

The conference provides a dynamic platform for scholars, researchers, and practitioners from around the world to share their work and exchange ideas in the field of linguistics. It aims to foster interdisciplinary dialogue and promote the exploration of current theoretical and applied issues in language research. Participants will have the opportunity to present their findings, engage in academic discussions, and establish connections with colleagues from the international linguistic community.

The 13th International Conference on Multimodality (13ICOM) will be organised at the University of Helsinki, Finland, in June 2027. The phenomenon of multimodality 鈥� or how communication and interaction build on coordinated combinations of multiple forms of expression 鈥� is now actively researched within diverse fields of study. Given the multifaceted nature and complexity of the phenomenon, pursuing a constructive dialogue between different approaches to multimodality is essential for moving

Today the border between the 鈥渘atural鈥� and the 鈥渁rtificial鈥� is in the spotlight and it is going through a process of epistemological redefinition that affects every field of the Humanities. The title of this conference, In/Un-Natural, plays with the triple significance of the prefix: on the one hand it underlines what lies within the concept of nature, and on the other hand it implies the analysis of what goes against nature and what simulates nature by means of the artifice. This doctoral co

Artificial intelligence is currently transforming not only the production of texts, images, and knowledge, but also the communicative and cultural practices of identity and relationship management. The 鈥渋nterface鈥� (cf. Hookway 2014) between humans and machines generates interactive practices shaped by both human and non-human systems of order, leading either to an imitation of human interaction practices or to emergent 鈥渋nterface practices鈥� (cf. Hector 2025). This also has implications for cultu

Language resources are the foundation of linguistic research and NLP. Corpora, lexicons, annotated datasets, benchmarks, and models are produced at an unprecedented pace. Yet their long-term stewardship, interoperability, and reuse remain inconsistent and often fragile. Rapid creation has outpaced sustainable design. This workshop aims to bring together researchers, infrastructure providers, data stewards, and policy actors who are committed to building durable language resource ecosystems. We a

We are pleased to announce that registration (free but required) for the conference "Parameters of Language Staging: Forms, Functions, and Multimodal Dynamics of Staged Discourse" (PLS8), to be held on Thursday, May 21, and Friday, May 22, 2026, at the University of Paris Nanterre, is open until April 20.

We are delighted to invite you to attend the third workshop of the EXREAN project* at Freie Universit盲t Berlin, focusing on individual differences in pragmatic processing. Pragmatic processing plays a central role in how speakers and hearers arrive at intended meanings in context. In everyday communication, language users routinely infer speakers鈥� intentions, resolve underspecification, enrich meanings, align perspectives, and negotiate common ground. These processes are not only fundamental

Human communication is inherently multimodal. In the interdisciplinary CRC 1760 鈥淪ilence, Noise and the Signal鈥�, we are interested in communicative aspects that are not easily captured by words and their syntactic combinations. By silence we refer to instances of communication in which there is no signifi茅 (signified), but something meaningful is contributed; by noise, we refer to cases in which there is more than one signifier or where the signified itself is ambiguous. Conceiving of communicat
