10 Years of CRAL
Anniversary Symposium
The organizers of the recent half-day symposium 'Applying Linguistics in the Real World' would like to extend a big thank you to all speakers and delegates who participated in this event. The focal point of our 10th anniversary celebrations, the symposium brought together applied linguists with a broad range of research interests, and generated stimulating discussion about the future of our field.
An interview with CRAL Directors, Dr Michaela Mahlberg and Dr Louise Mullany can be found on the University of Nottingham Press Office blog page.
