After seven successful editions of this conference series, the tradition will be continued with the 8th edition taking place in 2026 in Aachen, where a special focus will be on translation and interpreting at the intersection of various multilingual text production contexts. In keeping with tradition, the conference will make room for discussion of all strands of empirical research in translation and interpreting studies (TIS). In addition to this, the 2026 edition will host a workshop on the topic of transfer from TIS into other fields both within and outside of academia in cooperation with the newly founded <https://institut-translatologie.de/institute/> Institute of Translatology (see below for submission guidelines). Keynote speakers Gaëtanelle Gilquin (UCLouvain, Louvain-la-Neuve, Belgium) Marta Kajzer-Wietrzny (Adam Mickiewicz University, Poznan, Poland) Jean Nitzke (University of Agder, Kristiansand, Norway) Conference Topics We invite submissions reporting original empirical studies (including multi-methods approaches) on one or more of the topics below, though the following list is by no means exhaustive: * Different types of bilingual text production (including AI-based language generation) * Constrained communication * Directionality and L2 writing * Indirect translation and interpreting * Cognitive processing during translation and interpreting * Translationese and specific properties of translation and interpreting * MT post-editing types, practices, ethics * Audiovisual translation * Register or genre variation * Quality assessment * Workflow studies * The role of external agents (e.g. editors, GenAI-based agents) We also welcome methodological contributions that reflect on (established) research paradigms or that make proposals towards the establishment of reproducible paradigms in empirical TIS. The official language of the conference is English. Abstract submission Submission is now open! Please visit <https://openreview.net/group?id=TT%2F2026%2FConference> the conference venue on OpenReview[2] to submit your abstract as a PDF by January 5. If you do not yet have an account, it is advised to register in advance of submitting. Note that OpenReview requires you to fill in the ‘Abstract’ text field. Your extended abstract, however, should be in the form of a submitted PDF. Main conference Submissions should be made in the form of anonymized extended abstracts of up to 1,000 words (excluding references), which include a clear outline of the aims and methods of the study as well as (preliminary) results. The abstracts will be reviewed by at least two members of the scientific committee. Abstract text must be in single-spaced 12pt Arial font, with no indents and 1-inch borders on each side (2.54 cm). The title should be in 12pt Arial, bold and centered, in title case. Page numbers should be omitted. Figure and table captions should appear below the table or figure in 10pt Arial font. References must be in 9pt Arial font, following the APA7 citation style. Transfer workshop Submissions should follow above guidelines but be limited to max. 500 words describing the outline of a transfer activity or project to a field outside of TIS (either within or outside of academia). The abstract should give a clear idea of the type of activity or project, should describe the transfer target audience and should highlight how the audience and potentially the field of TIS benefits from the transfer activity or project. Program The conference will be held in person at RWTH Aachen University, Germany. Presentations will be 20 minutes with 10 minutes for discussion. A round table discussion will be organised on the conference theme. Important dates * Submission of abstracts: 12 January 2026 * Notification of acceptance: 31 March 2026 * Registration TBA * Conference: 9-11 September 2026 Publication We plan to publish selected papers, such as on the intersection of various multilingual text production contexts, in an edited volume or in a special issue of a journal.
