First call for Abstracts
*TT5: Translation in Transition: Human and Machine Intelligence* *October 15-17, 2020, Kent State University <https://www.kent.edu/mcls>* (Ohio, USA), In times of increasing machine intelligence, translation aides and translation technologies change at a rapid pace, fundamentally transforming the status of translation and the translation profession. TT5 aims at discussing related questions, including: what are the fundamental mechanisms that underlie human translation performance? How can and do humans cope with developing machine intelligence, and how can machines adapt to the human condition? What is the effect of technology on the translation process, translation performance, job satisfaction, the product, and society? We have invited several speakers who know all the answers to these questions, and much more, and we invite delegates to submit posters and abstracts that contribute to this discussion. *ABSTRACT SUBMISSIONS:* Participants are invited to submit approximately 500-word abstracts (1-2-pages) via EasyChair <https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=tt5>. Presentations should report empirical research, employing a broad spectrum of different methodologies and approaches, including questionnaires, interviews, keylogging, eye-tracking, brain imaging techniques etc, user or case studies, theoretical or methodological considerations, and vision papers. *INVITED SPEAKERS: * *Gregory Shreve* Kent State University *Arndt Jakobsen* Copenhagen Business School *James Underhill* Rouen University *Maeve Olohan * University of Manchester *Mirko Plitt * Translators without Borders *Natasha Tokowicz * University of Pittsburgh *Alon Lavie* Unbabel, Inc. *Moritz Schaeffer* Johannes Gutenberg-Universität *Spence Green* Lilt, Inc. *Masaru Yamada* Kansai University *IMPORTANT DATES:* - Submission of abstracts by May 15, 2020 - Acceptance of abstracts by June 29, 2020 - Final version by September 11, 2020 - Registration closes: September 18, 2020 *For more information consult the conference webpage <https://sites.google.com/site/centretranslationinnovation/conferences-workshops/tt5-2020>*
