Meeting Description:

The Conference has developed out of the Formulaic Language Research Network (FLaRN ) whose purpose is to co-ordinate research in the field of formulaic language, to share ideas and resources, and to create a sense of community among researchers who are not necessarily in geographical proximity. The network has been the focal point for postgraduate conferences in Cardiff 2004, Twickenham 2005 and Nottingham 2008 and three full conferences for researchers at all stages of their academic career in Paderborn (Germany) in 2010, Tilburg (Netherlands) in 2012 and Swansea (UK) in 2014. The 2016 FLaRN Conference in Vilnius will be a full conference open to both novice and mature researchers. 

Plenary Speakers:

- Dr Magali Paquot, Université catholique de Louvain (Belgium)

- Professor Rūta Petrauskaitė, Vytautas Magnus University in Kaunas (Lithuania)

- Professor Alison Wray, University of Cardiff (UK)
