ISBPAC 2021

The 3rd International Symposium on Bilingual and L2 Processing in Adults and Children (ISBPAC 2021) took place fully online on June 3-4, 2021.

This conference was originally intended to take place in Nijmegen, the Netherlands, on May 28-29, 2020, and was then referred to as ISBPAC 2020.

At ISBPAC 2020, while we did not wish to add any more words to the symposium’s name, we emphasized multi- and interdisciplinarity: we aimed to bring together researchers who investigate bilingual and L2 processing from various disciplines, including linguistics, cognitive science, neuroscience, multimodal communication, and language pedagogy, and all domains of language. Our fantastic keynote speakers illustrate ISBPAC’s aims.
