La Fundación Universidad de Valladolid participa en el programa Learning Journey Corea, una experiencia inmersiva que reunirá durante el mes de julio a 21 estudiantes procedentes de distintas universidades coreanas.

La iniciativa está gestionada por la Fundación UVa y cuenta con financiación parcial de la Agencia de Innovación y Desarrollo Económico del Ayuntamiento de Valladolid (IdeVa).

El programa comienza el lunes 6 de julio, en el Palacio de Congresos Conde Ansúrez, con un acto de bienevenida presidido por el vicerrector de Estrategia Internacional, Víctor Temprano. 

Durante su estancia, los participantes cursarán el Certificado Universitario en Emprendimiento Social, desarrollado en el Laboratorio de Emprendimiento Social de la UVa, dirigido por la profesora Claudia Möller, y completarán su formación con una píldora de español y actividades académicas, culturales y de conexión con el ecosistema local.

Por su parte, las Áreas de Innovación, a través del FabLab, y de Parque Científico impartirán dos sesiones sobre prototipado y emprendimiento, respectivamente. 

El Edificio I+D del Campus Miguel Delibes, sede principal de la Fundación UVa, acogerá buena parte de las sesiones, centradas en emprendimiento social, metodologías colaborativas, innovación con impacto, itinerario Lean y prototipado en el FabLab, antes de la presentación final de los proyectos desarrollados por los participantes.

Welcome to the 5th International Symposium Parallel Corpora (PaCor 2025)
“(Parallel) Corpus-Based Approaches to Language and Data: Generative AI Applications in Focus”

The ACTRES Research Group, in collaboration with the Department of English Studies at the University of Valladolid, are delighted to announce the 5th International Symposium Parallel Corpora PaCor 2025. This exciting edition will take place at the Facultad de Filosofía y Letras and Facultad de Comercio y Relaciones Laborales at the University of Valladolid, Spain on May 28-30th 2025.

Since its inception at the University of Santiago de Compostela in 2016, PaCor has established itself as a dynamic platform for researchers dedicated to the compilation, design, and application of parallel and multilingual corpora. Over the years, PaCor has fostered interdisciplinary collaboration among linguists, engineers, and statisticians to develop increasingly sophisticated tools and corpora that cater to diverse academic disciplines such as Lexicography, Contrastive Linguistics, Translation Studies, and Language Teaching and Learning.

Building on this rich tradition, the 2025 edition will spotlight the integration of Generative AI technologies within corpus-based research. As the field evolves to embrace advanced computational approaches, this symposium will provide an opportunity to explore the transformative potential of AI in corpus compilation, annotation, and analysis. The focus will extend to innovative applications in multilingual communication and the challenges posed by generative models in linguistics and cross-cultural studies.

PaCor 2025 aims to:

• Encourage cutting-edge research that leverages parallel corpora to investigate linguistic phenomena across languages.
• Provide a forum to discuss the theoretical, methodological, and empirical implications of integrating Generative AI tools in corpus-based research.
• Foster collaboration among experts from diverse fields to address the complexities of multilingual data processing.
• Raise critical questions for further exploration at the intersection of corpus linguistics and AI technologies.

We invite researchers from academia and industry to join us for a stimulating exchange of ideas and findings. Whether you are involved in building corpora, developing computational tools, or applying corpus-based approaches in innovative ways, PaCor 2025 will be the ideal venue to share your work and connect with the broader corpus linguistic community.

Stay tuned for updates on submission deadlines, keynote speakers, and the detailed program. We are looking forward to welcoming you to Valladolid for this milestone event!
