The broad theme of this year's conference is Research in Translation and Interpreting Studies: Methods of the Past, the Present and the Future, a topic which should accommodate a wide range of issues relevant to researchers working within the context of translating, interpreting, contrastive linguistics and related disciplines.

• "Microscopic", "macroscopic" or complex perspectives on T&I issues at theinterface of cultural, social or linguistic phenomena
• Methods, methodologies, theories and paradigms in empirical/ quantitative or conceptual/ qualitative research; reductionist or holistic, diachronic or synchronic, modernist or postmodernist approaches
• Issues relevant to the generation and selection of data as well as the instruments used by T&I researchers, corpora, TAPs, ethnographic methods, etc
