ISAPh is an international conference series. It has been held in
Nagoya, Japan (2016), Aizuwakamatsu, Japan (2018), Tarragona, Spain
(2021), Lund, Sweden (2022), and Tartu, Estonia (2024). It will be
held in Hiroshima, Japan, in September 2026. We define “Applied
Phonetics” as “practical use of phonetics in various aspects of human
life and communication”. Building on this definition, the symposium
welcomes interdisciplinary research that connects phonetics with
phonology, explores their interfaces, and demonstrates their
wide-ranging applications in areas such as speech technology, clinical
practice, education, and communication in society.

Prof. Bryan Gick, University of British Columbia, Canada
Prof. Jeff Mielke, North Carolina State University, USA

Applications or any topic from relevant fields listed below:
