[AUDITORY] Forensic Phonetics and Acoustics 2021 Conference - Call for Papers

Dear all,

The International Association for Forensic Phonetics and Acoustics (IAFPA) is the professional association for forensic scientists and researchers who analyse voices, speech and audio recordings.
The organisation seeks to foster research and provide a forum for the interchange of ideas and information on practice, development and research in forensic phonetics and acoustics, and to set down and enforce standards of professional conduct and procedure for those involved in forensic phonetic and acoustic casework – members are therefore bound by a Code of Practice.
IAFPA was formally established in York, England, in 1991 with the name The International Association for Forensic Phonetics (IAFP).  Since then, IAFP has grown to over 120 members worldwide, with expertise spanning both forensic phonetics and acoustics (hence the addition of the latter ‘A’ to IAFPA).
The 2021 conference is the postponed 2020 conference that - due to the continuing pandemic situation - must fully take place in a digital environment.

Submission Guidelines
All papers must be original and not simultaneously submitted to another journal or conference. The following paper categories are welcome:

Full papers: Oral presentation of a research topic or empirical data related to forensic phonetics
