HSCR provides an interdisciplinary forum for researchers working on all aspects of the history of research on speech communication. This edition will place a special emphasis on experimental phonetics as an emerging field at the intersection of the humanities, medical sciences, and engineering, which underwent rapid development throughout the twentieth century. Particular attention will be given to the role of institutions, internationally engaged scientific actors, and the creation of innovative scientific spaces, technologies, and techniques.

Contributions addressing this focus are welcome, as are submissions on any topics related to the historical aspects of speech communication research.
