Abstract
socio-legal scholars will gather for the first ever virtual SLSA Annual Conference, which will be hosted by Cardiff University's School of Law and Politics in its 50th-anniversary year.More than 530 abstracts have been received from 43 counties for the 32 streams and seven current topics.The current topics this year are as diverse as they are topical and include: 'Disability, Law and Social Justice', 'Epistemic Injustice and Socio-Legal Studies', 'Interdisciplinarity in Socio-Legal Research and Education', 'Registering the Everyday: Documents, Bureaucracy, and the Socio-Legal', 'Hybrid Civil/Criminal Procedures: Critical and Cross-Disciplinary Perspectives' and 'Socio-Legal Studies in Wales'.Thanks to generous sponsorship from the Journal of Law and Society, the Modern Law Review and Social and Legal Studies, the conference will be held using the Virt-Us Live Virtual Event Platform.This user-friendly platform allows the hallmarks of the SLSA conference to continue online by retaining live face-toface conversations between presenters and audiences, opportunities to meet and network, and an interactive poster gallery.With support from the Learned Society of Wales and Professor Patricia Tuitt we have been able award 22 bursaries to enable scholars to join us from around the world. SLSa 2021 PGr aCtIVItIeSAs your PGR reps, we are incredibly excited about SLSA 2021 and are looking forward to welcoming you to the dedicated PGR Activities which will be held online this year on Monday 29 March 2021.This means that we will be able to open up the workshops to even more PGRs than ever!We are currently in the process of planning and organising a few different events.This year we are delighted to include a session on PGR wellbeing -we are grateful to Dr Emma Jones for delivering this session.We understand that the last 12 months have been turbulent and challenging for many PGRs, and issues around our wellbeing are now more important than ever before.Therefore, there will be an interactive session in which PhD students can explore different ways to focus on wellbeing and self-care during this difficult time.We are also very excited and thankful that Professor Chris Ashford and Professor Phil Thomas (both journal editors) have kindly offered to deliver a session on publishing in academia and demystifying the publishing process.Publishing is an important part of our role as academics, and this session will provide valuable insights into how to get your journal article into print.As in previous years, there will be an ECR networking session.This is still at the organising stage, but the idea will be to provide PGRs with an opportunity to hear from and speak to ECRs in the early stages of their own careers about their experiences and taking the next step after completion of a PhD.Finally … we are also planning to do a quiz!Unfortunately there won't be a chance to socialise in the same way as we have JLS Stream at SLSa 2021The Journal of Law and Society (JLS) has a stream of eight panels running throughout the Cardiff conference, 30 March-April 1.We have invited a number of stellar speakers, but it would be invidious to name a few, and there are too many to list.Panel topics include: researching judges; collaborative authorship and elite interviewing; the research process, law and social change; law and disability; cause lawyering; reviewing socio-legal studies; and books that influenced me.Our speakers come from the UK, Ireland, France, Australia and the USA.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; the direct Gemma label and the distilled Codex classifier agree on what is shown here.
