Two language sciences members sit at a table, discussing research at a recent member event.  One of them, a woman with long dark hair, glasses, and a dark-colored long-sleeved shirt, gestures while speaking, while the other, a woman with light-coloured hair pulled back in a ponytail, wearing a dark-coloured short-sleeved shirt,  writes down notes on a large flipchart on the table in front of them.  Other language sciences members can be seen conversing in the background.
