Attended the International Child Phonology Conference (ICPC virtual - 2021)

This week, I am attending the International Child Phonology Conference (ICIC), virtually. "ICPC is the largest annual gathering for research on child speech and phonological development" (ICPC website, 2021)

Since this is a virtual conference, and I wanted to take a photo with the conference banner. Here's the photo of my avatar with the conference title, in gathertown 😊.

It was a great experience to attend this conference. I had the opportunity to meet many senior researchers and grad students. Many conferences last year were postponed or canceled due to Covid-19. It's my pleasure to finally be able to attend a conference. Also, it's the first time that I am presenting something arising from my Ph.D. research project. The title of the oral presentation is: "Development of Urdu Speech Assessment Test (USAT) - Conceptualization & Pilot Study".

=> Besides the oral presentation, we are also presenting two posters (arising from an earlier (pre-PhD) collaboration with Mahnoor Anwar).

Here's the link to the full oral presentation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=au7ACKBFQiU&t=18s&ab [note. This is an old post moved here from the previous blog site.]
