We are happy to announce the first Call for Papers for the sixth
edition of the International Conference on Translation, Interpreting
and Cognition (ICTIC-6). After the success of ICTIC-1 in Mendoza,
Argentina, in 2017; ICTIC-2 in Germersheim, Germany, in 2019; ICTIC-3
in Forli, Italy, in 2021; ICTIC-4 in Santiago de Chile in 2023; and
ICTIC-5 in Kristiansand, Norway in 2025, the sixth edition of ICTIC,
to be held in Belo Horizonte, Brazil, aims to bring together
cutting-edge research at the intersection of translation, interpreting
and cognition, with a special focus on innovation paths in CTIS in the
age of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI).
New technologies, in the broadest sense of the word, are demanded by
society to enable a diversity of multilingual meanings to be created,
exchanged, and disseminated, based on equality, complementarity, and
reciprocity. In this emerging scenario, studies that promote and seek
innovation, in the widest sense of the word, play a fundamental role
in providing insights and solutions to meet new challenges. Thus, the
choice of Innovation Paths in Cognitive Translation and  Interpreting
Studies as the theme of the ICTIC-6 Conference invites contributions
that draw on state- of-the-art research and interdisciplinary
perspectives.
Hoping to bridge languages and connect minds, ICTIC-6 welcomes
scholars and students working on theoretical, methodological and
technological advancements across the full range of CTIS, including
theoretical, empirical and applied research. Key areas of theoretical
exploration should include innovation in CTIS related to the cognitive
modelling of translation and interpreting across their various
modalities. These are particularly pertinent in the GenAI era, in
which both human-AI and human-human interaction are worth
investigating.
By showcasing a wide range of topics, we aim to provide a platform for
fruitful discussions and foster interdisciplinary dialogues. Through a
blend of theoretical, methodological, technological and applied
perspectives, ICTIC-6 seeks to enhance and expand the scope of CTIS,
while opening new research avenues.
We welcome contributions on several aspects of CTIS. There is no limit
on specific topics, but we welcome ideas that fully engage with
innovation pathways and technological developments in the field, as
well as interdisciplinary contributions. In particular, the four areas
of interest are:
1. Theoretical and methodological advances in CTIS
- New theoretical perspectives for empirical and applied research
- Emerging social-related issues in empirical and applied research
- Innovative methodologies for empirical and applied research
2. Training and practice in the GenAI age
- Training translators and interpreters in the GenAI age
- Emerging translation and interpreting modalities/practices in the
GenAI age
- GenAI and new practices in human-computer interaction
3. GenAI and technological developments in CTIS
- The role of GenAI in reshaping practices in translation and
interpreting
- Assessing GenAI systems and LLM models at the CTIS interface
- Designing CTIS-oriented technologies informed by GenAI
4. Ethics, agency, and communication strategies in the GenAI age
- Ethics for translators and interpreters in the GenAI age
- Translator/interpreter agency in the GenAI age
- Communication strategies in the GenAI age
