Fàilte [ˈfaːltʲə] Welcome [ˈwɛlkəm]

The ICPLA2020/21 organising committee are pleased to invite you to the 18th biennial conference of the International Clinical Phonetics and Linguistics Association. The conference will take place from 23rd to 25th of June 2021. We are delighted to host the conference remotely from the University of Strathclyde, home to one of the oldest Speech and Language Therapy courses in the UK. 

The conference aims to foster lively and stimulating discussion around the application of linguistics and phonetics to disordered speech and language with the goal of enhancing linguistic and phonetic theory and developing approaches to the evaluation, diagnosis and treatment of communication disorders.

We are delighted to announce the first bi-annual  “Nicole Müller and Martin Ball Prize for Best Oral Presentation” and “Martin Ball and Nicole Müller Prize for Best Poster”. 

The awards are sponsored by Taylor and Francis for Clinical Linguistics & Phonetics, the ICPLA’s journal. Each prize will be US$500.00. The awards will be given out every two years at the ICPLA conference, starting at ICPLA2021. 

We look forward to welcoming you to virtual Glasgow, the World’s friendliest city.

Dr Joanne Cleland

Chair of the Conference Committee
