13th International Conference on Multimodality University of Helsinki, 1–4 June 2027
The 13th International Conference on Multimodality (13ICOM) will be organised at the University of Helsinki, Finland.
The phenomenon of multimodality – or how communication and interaction build on coordinated combinations of multiple forms of expression – is now actively researched within diverse fields of study. Given the multifaceted nature and complexity of the phenomenon, pursuing a constructive dialogue between different approaches to multimodality is essential for moving towards a shared understanding. This is the main theme of the 13th International Conference on Multimodality (13ICOM), which celebrates the 25th anniversary of organising the first conference in the series in Salzburg, Austria in 2002.
For 13ICOM, we want to specifically emphasise the role of early-career researchers working on diverse aspects of multimodality by organising a doctoral consortium on June 1, 2027 ahead of the main conference on June 2–4, 2027.
The doctoral consortium features 5-minute pitch talks from participants and master classes in theories and methods from experts, with plenty of opportunities for networking with fellow early-career researchers.
The confirmed plenarists for 13ICOM include (in alphabetical order):
Pentti Haddington (University of Oulu, Finland) Maria Grazia Sindoni (University of Messina, Italy) Beate Schirrmacher (Linnaeus University, Sweden) Amanda Wasielewski (Uppsala University, Sweden)
The detailed call for papers can be found on the 13ICOM website along with further information. https://www.helsinki.fi/en/conferences/13th-international-conference-multimodality
Abstract submission We invite submissions for both doctoral consortium and the main conference using the same format. Submissions must be anonymous and are limited to a maximum length of 250 words excluding references. All submissions will undergo a double-blind review process that evaluates their quality, novelty and relevance to the broad field of multimodality.
Further information about submission formats and the submission portal can be found on the conference website:
