DESCRIPTION:February's UniSIG online meeting is built around a short presen
 tation by Lisa Muszynski\, who holds a PhD in Social Sciences (University 
 of Helsinki\, 2017) and has been employed in the Language Services unit of
  the University of Helsinki Language Centre since spring of 2001. She writ
 es: 'As an independent researcher focused on the embodied nature of langua
 ge\, I bring to my research the practical\, everyday experience of revisin
 g the texts of my academic clients. This union of theory and practice\, in
  both researching on and actively working with language\, has led to the m
 utual enrichment of both endeavours.' Here's a link to a blog that gives m
 ore details on her work.\nThis is how she describes her talk: 'The demands
  of careful revision work in a professional\, academic setting at the Univ
 ersity of Helsinki's Language Services require riding the hard-and-fast li
 ne between revising and editing. This boundary is built into our job title
  from the outset\, that of 'Language Revisor'. Essentially\, the key to su
 ccessful revision is being able to strike a balance between a text's 'cont
 ent' and its 'style'. Separating these involves not only identifying the b
 asic problems of grammar\, syntax and punctuation\, but also steering clea
 r of an academic author's expert content. My talk will thus focus on some 
 of the challenges and briefly discuss the differences between a 'reader-fo
 cus' and a 'writer-focus' that underpin the philosophy behind this obsolet
 e spelling of our job title.'\nAfter her short talk there will be time for
  Q&A and general discussion. As always\, all SENSE members are welcome to 
 attend this meeting\, which will last about one hour. You can use the butt
 on above to register.\nRegistration will close at 09.00h on 11 February an
 d registered participants will be emailed the Zoom link to the meeting.\nC
 ontact me if you wish to use attendance at this meeting to add to your PE 
 points.\nJoy Burrough-Boenisch (UniSIG convener) https://www.sense-online.
