Meeting Description:

The 15th International Symposium on Bilingualism
- The Different Faces of Bilingualism –

The International Symposium on Bilingualism (ISB) is a biennial
conference on a wide range of issues concerning bi/multilingualism.
Since its inaugural conference in 1997 at Newcastle University, ISB
has become the most significant conference in the field of
bi/multilingualism. ISB has a strong focus on showcasing
multidisciplinary research with a representation from a range of
disciplines at every conference, including education, linguistics,
neuroscience, psychology and sociology. The aim of ISB is to bring
together bi/multilingualism researchers from all around the globe to
advance the theoretical and applied research in bi/multilingualism,
and to support bi/multilingualism practices in the community.


The conference theme of ISB15 is The Different Faces of Bilingualism

“The Different Faces of Bilingualism” is a deliberately broad theme
for ISB15, aimed at meeting ISB’s mission to create a space for
researchers with a diverse range of interests to share their knowledge
and gain new perspectives, and to foster meaningful cross-disciplinary
collaborations. We hope to bring together researchers working on
different faces of bilingualism, including different research areas,
methodological approaches, and populations. In line with this aim, we
have invited plenary speakers who represent different faces of
bilingualism, from sociolinguistics to education, psycholinguistics to
translation. This broad theme reflects the multidisciplinary nature of
the organizing committee, based in a center of excellence for
neuroscientific research into language and bilingualism. To capitalize
on this expertise, ISB15 will feature The Bilingual Brain Day, which
is intended to share the core insights of the field with researchers
of other areas and to discuss the state-of-the-art with researchers in
the field. The conference theme also aims to promote inclusivity,
inspired by its location in the Spanish Basque Country, one of the few
regions in the world that has successfully revived its bilingual
heritage across all aspects of society.

2nd Call for Papers:


The 15th International Symposium on Bilingualism will take place on
9-13 June 2025 in Donostia-San Sebastián (Spain) and will be hosted by
the Basque Center on Cognition, Brain and Language.

The theme of the conference is The Different Faces of Bilingualism.

ISB15 invites submissions in all areas of research on bilingualism and
multilingualism, including but not limited to: linguistics,
sociolinguistics, psycholinguistics, neurolinguistics, applied
linguistics, neuropsychology, language acquisition, clinical
linguistics, language and education, and multilingual societies.

Keynote speakers:

•       Laura Bosch (University of Barcelona)
•       Jasone Cenoz (University of the Basque Country)
•       Robert Hartsuiker (Ghent University)
•       Janet van Hell (The Pennsylvania State University)
•       Pia Lane (University of Oslo)
•       Rajend Mesthrie (University of Cape Town)
•       Elizabeth D. Peña (University of California, Irvine)
•       Anthony Pym (Universitat Rovira i Virgili)

We invite abstracts for two categories of submissions: individual
papers and posters.

Individual papers are formal presentations on original research or
pedagogy-focused topics by one or more authors, lasting a maximum of
20 minutes with 5 additional minutes for discussion.

Posters on original research or pedagogy will be displayed in sessions
that offer the opportunity for individualized, informal discussion
with others in the field. Posters are especially effective for
presenting work-in-progress, fieldwork, and results of empirical
research for which data can be presented visually. On each day of the
conference, there will be a 90-minute poster session with presenters
in attendance. Posters can be left on display throughout the entire
day of their session.

Preference will be given to abstracts describing completed work with
research results available, but abstracts featuring preliminary data
are also welcome. Abstracts describing research plans will be
considered for poster presentation only.

Abstract submission for individual papers and posters will open on 18
September 2024 and end at 23:59 (CET) on 13 November 2024. Please note
that individual submissions cannot be made while the call for symposia
is still open, which will end on 16 September.

Abstracts should be a maximum of 300 words in length (including any
references), anonymized and submitted in English via the submission
portal: https://www.bcbl.eu/events/isb15/en/abstract/

Abstracts will be reviewed anonymously. Notification of acceptance
will be sent by 3 February 2025.
