Themes and submissions
Fonetik 2024 welcomes submissions on any aspect of phonetics and speech science.
Scientific areas include, but are not limited to: phonetics, phonology, linguistics,
computational linguistics, speech and language pathology, voice research, music and
singing, conversation analysis, psychology, cognitive science, speech and language
technology, signal processing, machine learning... Submissions by junior researchers,
bachelor or master students, and/or researchers that have not yet been introduced to the
Fonetik meeting are strongly encouraged!
Seminar to celebrate Björn Lingblom's 90th birthday
As this iteration of the conference coincides with the 90th birthday of Professor emeritus
Björn Lindblom, we will also organize a special afternoon seminar to celebrate! Björn is
the former head of the Stockholm University Department of Linguistics and founder of the
Phonetics Laboratory. He has served as tutor, colleague, advisor, and friend to
generations of phonetics students. We encourage presenters to submit contributions toward
this special seminar on themes pertinent to central themes of Björn’s research. These
topics include speech production, coarticulation, phonological development, evolution of
speech, phonetic systems, and phonological universals – and many others. These
contributions will be included as part of the general conference proceedings.
Language for presentation
The contributions at Fonetik deal with Swedish, Nordic and other languages, and the
meeting is often visited by researchers from neighbouring countries and occasionally by
more long-distance participants. The language for presentations and plenary discussions
has been English since the mid-10s, which provides better opportunities for both visitors
and doctoral students from other language environments to participate.
Social events
Conference participants are invited to a reception on Monday evening, June 3rd, at the
conference site, and to a dinner on Tuesday evening, close to the campus area.
