This research network provides a space for researchers from interdisciplinary backgrounds to develop collaborative research within the linguistics of food. Building on an increasing global interest in food and eating studies, the network enables a focus on the cultural and social interactional issues around food, incorporating all forms of applied linguistic research. The aims of the network are to make more visible the diversity of linguistics research on food and to provide an interdisciplinary and cross-cultural meeting point for researchers in food and language studies.

Announcing BaFoLa Season 4!
The fourth season of BaFoLa, the Bayreuth Food and Language digital lecture series, is here! BaFoLa is a monthly event, open to anyone interested in language and/or food. The schedule is given in the poster below.
Please note that for the summer term BaFoLa has moved to a different time slot (18:15-19:45 CEST) and day of the week (last or second to last Wednesday of the month).
Attendance at BaFoLa is free, but participants are asked to register via a quick message to sofia.ruediger@uni-bayreuth.de. If you are already on the mailing list (i.e., receiving this email in the original), there's no need to register again - you will receive the abstracts and Zoom links for each talk automatically (~one week in advance of each talk).
