Thursday 22 January, London

This is a one-day public workshop as part of the Marie Curie Initial Training Network INSPIRE (Investigating Speech Processing in Realistic Environments). The workshop will consist of introductory tutorials, research talks, and submitted posters related to how talker-listener differences (e.g., language background, accent) affect speech perception and production under everyday listening conditions (e.g., noise). Speakers will include Patti Adank, Bronwen Evans, Valerie Hazan, Mark Huckvale, Paul Iverson, Melanie Pinet (University College London); Martin Cooke, Maria Luisa Garcia Lecumberri (University Del Pais Vasco); and Esther Janse (Radboud University Nijmegen).

Registration is free via the website below, but numbers are limited. Please include a statement of why you would like to attend the workshop, as well as a title/author/abstract  (no more than 150 words) if you wish to present a poster. Please register before 22 December.
