The proud supervisor moments are piling up at #MTSUMMIT2025 😍 Now Xiaoye Li presenting (for the first time!) at #CTT2025 the work we did on revision and perceived origin of a translation (HT vs NMT) It's been great working together in Ghent these past few months 🔥

Some key takeaways: we need to be careful to generalise our findings as there is a lot of individual variation across translators and texts #CTT2025

Full house at #CTT2025 at #MTSUMMIT2025 for the paper with Lieve Macken and @paolaruffo.bsky.social on translation difficulties in different workflows in literary translation 🤩

Another proud supervisor moment - very first big conference presentation and killing it 🤩🔥 #GITT2025
