VAR4LCR conference: that's a wrap!

This week, on 7 and 8 July 2025, the VAR4LCR conference took place in Louvain-la-Neuve.
The event marked the culmination of a collaborative initiative between the Centre for English Corpus Linguistics at UCLouvain and the Department of English at Northern Arizona University.
The two-day conference featured a rich programme of keynote lectures, full papers, work-in-progress reports, and poster presentations. We were honoured to welcome three keynote speakers:
- Prof. Douglas Biber (Northern Arizona University)
- Prof. Marije Michel (University of Groningen)
- Prof. Shelley Staples (University of Arizona)
As we reflect on the event, we leave even more convinced that this is a vibrant and growing field, and we look forward to seeing the new ideas and collaborations that will emerge from this shared experience!
A heartfelt thank you to everyone who joined us in making this conference a success!
