CA research group

The CA research group is co-ordinated by Dr. Rebecca Clift and meets weekly during term-time. It is a forum for the technical, conversation-analytic examination of interactional data, and discussion of current research in conversation analysis. Our members are current PhD students and interested MA students and they bring a number of native languages to the group – currently we have speakers of Spanish and English, and past members have been native speakers of Greek, Arabic, Japanese and French. We also invite leading CA researchers to lead data sessions and present work-in-progress; past visitors have included Paul Drew, John Rae, Celia Kitzinger, Gareth Walker and Ray Wilkinson.
