Cognition in Audiovisual Translation

The Cognition in Audiovisual Translation (CAT) Lab explores how people perceive, process, and interact with audiovisual content across languages and cultures. Our research focuses on the cognitive mechanisms underlying subtitle reading, audio description, and other forms of audiovisual translation, using empirical methods such as eye tracking, brain imaging and behavioural analysis.

CAT Lab brings together scholars and industry partners dedicated to advancing research at the intersection of language, media, and the mind—and translating those insights into meaningful social impact.

We aim to bridge cognitive science and translation studies to advance understanding of multimodal language processing and support more accessible, effective media communication for global audiences.
