When talkers speak, they also listen. Talkers routinely adapt to their interlocutors and environment, maintaining intelligibility and dialogue fluidity in a way that promotes efficient exchange of information. The Listening Talker Workshop held in Edinburgh from May 2-3 (http://listening-talker.org/workshop), brought together a wide range of researchers to address this multi-disciplinary topic.  As part of the workshop, CAHR presented two posters and an invited talk.
