We are pleased to announce the First Newcastle Postgraduate Conference in Theoretical and Applied Linguistics in association with the University of Durham, sponsored by the Arts and Humanities Research Council. The conference will take place on Friday 23rd June at the University of Newcastle.

The success of the Durham Postgraduate Linguistics Conference over the past decade, and the recent amalgamation of Durham's linguistics department with Newcastle University's School of English, has led to the creation of a new conference based in Newcastle. This one-day conference is designed to give linguistics postgraduates an opportunity to present andthe day of the conference, but posters will be on display all day. Speakers will also be invited to submit their paper for publication in the Newcastle & Durham Working Papers in Linguistics.
