*NULab for Texts, Maps, and Networks* *Annual Conference:* *"What Now?"* *April 1, 10:45am–4:30pm (Eastern)* Dear all, Please join us on April 1st for the NULab's fifth annual spring conference, showcasing the work of our faculty, graduate students, and research collaborators. This year, the conference will have the theme “What now?” and will share research on taking stock of current events, envisioning possible futures, and living with the unexpected. The conference will feature a set of lightning talks and a keynote by Gabriela Baeza Ventura <https://www.uh.edu/class/spanish/faculty/baeza-ventura_g/>, associate professor of Hispanic literature, and Carolina Villarroel <https://artepublicopress.com/carolina-villarroel/>, Brown Foundation director of research for Arte Público Press, both at the University of Houston. The keynote will share insights from the development of the University of Houston's new U.S. Latino Digital Humanities Center <https://artepublicopress.com/digital-humanities/>. The center "serves as a venue for scholarship focused on the US Latino written legacy that has been lost, absent, repressed or underrepresented. " The conference will be virtual, but we will have an in-person lunch and social gathering, in the "Central West" tent at Northeastern University, from 10:30am–4:30pm. All are welcome to join!
