ISBMS in Crete concludes

The International Society of Bilingual and Monolingual Speech (ISMBS) conference has just concluded with a conference dinner and networking day exploring western Crete. We were able to have many rich conversations and create new friendships and collaborations. I have enjoyed being keynote at ISMBS and look forward to ongoing opportunities to work with attendees from across the world.
