The biannual conference on Laboratory Approaches to Romance Phonology (LARP) seeks to bring together international researchers interested in all areas of Romance phonetics and phonology, in particular within the laboratory phonology approach. In the past decades, research in the laboratory phonology paradigm has expanded significantly so that the disciplines of phonetics and phonology are being investigated from a unique interdisciplinary angle. LARP aims at providing an interdisciplinary forum for world-wide research focusing on the experimental investigation of Romance phonetics and phonology and their related areas, such as language acquisition, language variation and change, prosody, speech pathology, speech technology, as well as the phonology-phonetics interface. LARP VII will be hosted for the first time in Europe, at the Laboratoire Parole et Langage in Aix-en-Provence, and will be the result of a joint effort between Aix-Marseille University (Aix-en-Provence, France) and the Universitat Pompeu Fabra (Barcelona, Spain).
