Linguistic Field(s): Phonetics; Phonology

Meeting Description:

The second PaPI conference will be hosted by the Universitat Autònoma de
Barcelona in June 20-21, 2005. Phonetics and Phonology in Iberia (PaPI) is an
international conference aiming to bring together researchers interested in all
areas of phonetics and phonology, with a special focus on the relationship
between the two. It aims at providing a new interdisciplinary forum in Europe
for discussion of phonetics and/or phonology and their related areas - such as
language acquisition, language variation and change, speech pathology, and
speech technology -, the phonology-phonetics interface, and laboratory phonology
work. The conference is hosted every two years by an Iberian university. The
PaPI 2005 conference format will be the following: a two-day meeting including
four oral sessions of 20-minute presentations (plus 10 minutes for discussion)
of submitted papers, and three invited talks. The invited speakers of PaPI 2005
will be Louis Goldstein (Haskins Laboratories and Yale University), D. Robert
Ladd (University of Edinburgh) and Daniel Recasens (Universitat Autònoma de
Barcelona and Institut d'Estudis Catalans). As a special event, the conference
will host Expophonos 2005, an exhibit about the development of phonetic sciences
in Catalonia.
