Description:
We are pleased to announce the Aix Summer School on Prosody 2016 to be held
from September 6-9, 2016 in Aix-en-Provence (France).

The Aix Summer School on Prosody 2016 will bring together experts on
theoretical and practical aspects of the research on prosody. The school will
be organized around morning lectures and afternoon tutorials (where
participants will practice concepts and skills discussed in lectures) and data
clinics (where participants can bring together their own data and questions
for discussion).

The school is intended for post-graduate students and researchers interested
in all the theoretical and practical aspects of the research on prosody and
intonation. The school will be suitable both for researchers already working
on intonation and prosody, and wishing to learn more about specific topics,
and for researchers who wish to better understand how to incorporate and
control prosody in their own work.

Topics will include (but not limited to): theoretical models on prosody and
intonation; perception of intonation; prosody and language pathologies;
prosody, semantics, and discourse; prosody and L2; prosody and
neurolinguistics; transcription of intonation and prosody; statistical methods
in prosody research; and preparation of stimuli for perception studies.

The confirmed invited speakers are:

- Amalia Arvaniti (Kent University): Theoretical models of prosody
- Mariapaola  D'Imperio (Aix-Marseille Université - IUF): Tonal alignment:
perception and production
- Laura Dilley (Michigan State University): Prosody and perception methods
- Janet Fletcher (The University of Melbourne): Transcription of
under-described languages
- James Sneed German (Aix-Marseille Université): Prosody and discourse
