Under the direction of Dr. Dorothy Kenny, several CTTS researchers presented a flash panel at the 4th IATIS conference in The Queen’s University, Belfast. The panel was entitled The Human Element in Translation Technology, and gave a comprehensive overview of the research being carried out in the centre – slides can be found here, and videos of each talk will be uploaded very soon.
