A one-day interactive workshop in Cambridge

  • Talks on technical, theoretical, and practical aspects of neural speech and language decoding

  • Poster session to share new results and works in progress

  • Network with colleagues and peers working on similar topics in a relaxed and informal setting

 

The Cambridge Speech Decoding Workshop brings together researchers interested in the neural decoding of speech and language to explore recent advances in modelling techniques and their practical application. As the field grows rapidly, this event offers a valuable opportunity for both newcomers and experienced researchers to deepen their understanding of decoding approaches and clarify methodological choices in study design, analysis, and data collection.

The workshop will feature talks and discussions led by experts in the field, focusing on practical strategies and theoretical insights into techniques such as ridge regression and mutual information analysis. In addition to formal sessions, there will be an interactive poster session during the lunch break, providing a platform to share new results or works in progress. Whether you're exploring how to apply neural decoding methods to your own research or simply want to stay up to date with current approaches, this workshop is designed to support learning and collaboration across career stages and disciplines.

 

Attendance is free for University of Cambridge students and staff (registration required – please contact Richard Arlett on ra664@cam.ac.uk for the password). If you have access to grant funding, we would be very grateful if you optionally selected the "standard registration" fee to contribute to workshop costs.

Non-Cambridge attendees are also welcome with a small registration fee to cover catering costs and spaces allocated on a first-come, first-served basis. If you’re interested in presenting a poster, please get in touch with the organisers. 

 

This workshop is funded by Cambridge Language Sciences Interdisciplinary Research Centre.

What we do

Cambridge Language Sciences is an Interdisciplinary Research Centre at the University of Cambridge. Our virtual network connects researchers from five schools across the university as well as other world-leading research institutions. Our aim is to strengthen research collaborations and knowledge transfer across disciplines in order to address large-scale multi-disciplinary research challenges relating to language research.
