ISCA Medal for Scientific Achievement 2021

Over the past few months, the ISCA Board has sought out nominations for the ISCA Medal for Scientific Achievement. This medal recognizes and honors an individual each year who has made extraordinary contributions to the field of speech communication science and technology. We received a large number of nominations and went through an extensive review process by the ISCA Awards Committee and all ISCA Board members (several rounds of voting to narrow to three finalists and then additional discussions). I am pleased to announce that this year's recipient of the 2021 ISCA Medal for Scientific Achievement is Prof. Dr.-Ing. Hermann Ney, Human Language Technology and Pattern Recognition, RWTH Aachen, Germany.

 


 

This is the highest ISCA award for scientific and technical achievement, and certainly well deserved for Prof. Dr.-Ing. Ney's pioneering and seminal contributions to data-driven methods for automatic speech recognition and machine translation.

Please join me in congratulating our 2021 ISCA MEDAL FOR SCIENTIFIC ACHIEVEMENT recipient! Prof. Dr.Ing. Ney will be giving the opening keynote address at INTERSPEECH-2021 this fall.

Further details can be found in this press release: word, pdf.

ISCA International Virtual Seminars

A seminar programme is an important part of the life of a research lab, especially for its research students, but it's difficult for scientists to travel to give talks at the moment. However,  presentations may be given online and, paradoxically, it is thus possible for labs to engage international speakers who they wouldn't normally be able to afford. 

ISCA has set up a pool of speakers prepared to give online talks. In this way we can enhance the experience of students working in our field, often in difficult conditions. To find details of the speakers:

  1. Click Distinguished Lecturers in the left panel
  2. Online Seminars then appears beneath Distinguished Lecturers: click that.

Speakers may pre-record their talks if they wish, but they don't have to. It is up to the host lab to contact speakers and make the arrangements. Talks can be state-of-the-art, or tutorials.

If you make use of this scheme and arrange a seminar, please send brief details (lab, speaker, date) to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.

If you wish to join the scheme as a speaker, we need is a title, a short abstract, a 1 paragraph biopic and contact details. Please send them to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
