Dear All,
The 3rd International Conference on Historical Medical Discourse (Chimed-3) will take place in London, 11-12th May, 2023.
Initiated in Milan in 2017, the Chined conference series focuses on multidisciplinary research into European historical medical discourse. We welcome studies drawing from linguistics, literary studies and history – among others – to present a comprehensive and well-rounded view of medical discourse in Europe. The third conference focuses on medical discourse in English in the period 1500–1900. Studies may be either synchronic or diachronic, and a long view may stretch even beyond that main frame of time. In accordance with the multidisciplinary aims of the conference series, we encourage papers that approach medical discourse from different methodological and disciplinary perspectives, though papers based on corpus analyses are very welcome. The language of the conference is English.
We invite submissions for presentations of 30 minutes (20 min. + 10 min. discussion). Abstracts of no more than 500 words (excluding references) should be submitted via email to a.mcenery(a)lancaster.ac.uk<mailto:a.mcenery@lancaster.ac.uk> with the subject line ‘Chimed-3’. Abstract submissions are due by Monday 16th January 2023.

Hi Lucia,
The Cambridge Learner Corpus contains exam scripts of the Cambridge exams and a rich set of metadata indicating, among other information, the performance level of the candidate (in addition to the exam level and the pass/fail status). You have to apply to get access to the corpus (http://languageresearch.cambridge.org/academic-research-request-form). You can also access a section of this corpus through the Sketch Engine (https://www.sketchengine.eu/cambridge-learner-corpus/).
Hope this helps

Dear all,
The University of Arizona seeks multiple tenure-track hires in their School
of Information Science. The successful candidates will have a record of
research in machine learning, natural language processing, and/or
computational social science focusing on misinformation in social media and
social networks to begin in Fall, 2023.
They are especially interested in candidates who are well-versed in big
data computational methodologies, those with interest in academic
leadership roles (e.g., program supervision, student advising), and/or
those who bring a record of working on interdisciplinary/transdisciplinary
funded grant teams.
This position will include teaching responsibilities at both undergraduate
and graduate levels and across online and face to face formats. The
successful applicant will have ideally developed a strong track record of
excellence in teaching and academic citizenry.
I have only just moved here in Sept but I have found the University of
Arizona to be a lively and interdisciplinary community, and Tucson is a
fabulous city.
More details, and how to apply,
