Meeting Description:

The 15th annual Lancaster Linguistics and English Language Postgraduate
Conference will be held on 23-24 July 2021. The theme is Linguistics in a
Digital World. The LAEL PG conference is an annual international event
organized by postgraduate students of the Department of Linguistics and
English Language, Lancaster University. It is designed to give postgraduate
students from all over the world an opportunity to present and discuss their
research in a supportive and intellectually stimulating environment.


Call for Papers: 

MA and PhD students are invited to submit abstracts on linguistic research, in
particular those that study digital data or use digital methods. The following
panels have been proposed and you may address your abstract to any one of
these. If your abstract does not fit one, please submit it anyway; we are
happy to consider abstracts on topics not listed below.

 - Cognitive Linguistics
 - Corpora and Language Acquisition
 - Corpora and Psycholinguistics
 - Critical Discourse Studies & Multimodality
 - Digital Approaches to Historical Language
 - Discourse and Social Media
 - Discourses of Health
 - Literacy as Social Practice

Abstract submission deadline: Friday, 26 March 
Link for submission: https://forms.gle/mtMELhMr4RM8si559 
Word limit for submissions: 300 words exl. references

When submitting an abstract, you may choose to apply for a poster presentation
or a longer talk. Posters are to be created in PowerPoint and submitted with a
short video (max. 3 mins.) by 16 July. Details on how to submit your
presentation and video will be shared with acceptance notices.

A talk is 20 minutes long and can be given live or pre-recorded. A live Q&A
session of 5-10 sessions with the presenter will follow the talk, whether it
is live or pre-recorded. Anyone who has an abstract accepted for a talk can
choose between live and pre-recorded. If the latter is selected, the recording
should be submitted by 16 July according to instructions provided with
acceptance notice.

In previous years, this conference has taken place at Lancaster University but
this year we are going digital. This means that the talks and social events
will be held online, which will make the conference more accessible. 

We are very much looking forward to receiving your abstracts if you are an MA
or PhD-student. If you have any questions, please email
laelpgconf2021 at gmail.com.
