The Translation in Transition conference series has served as a meeting site for empirical translation scholars for over ten years now. After seven successful editions of this conference series, the tradition will be continued with the 8th edition taking place in 2026 in Aachen, where a special focus will be on translation and interpreting at the intersection of various multilingual text production contexts. In keeping with tradition, the conference will make room for discussion of all strands of empirical research in translation and interpreting studies (TIS). In addition to this, the 2026 edition will host a workshop on the topic of transfer from TIS into other fields both within and outside of academia in cooperation with the newly founded Institute of Translatology1 (see Registration & Submission for submission guidelines).
