The integrity of the group, as well as its international and interdisciplinary nature, has led to innovative and quality research, structured around the two traditional areas of action within PSI: community interpreting (including healthcare, educational and social care interpreting); and legal interpreting (including court and police interpreting, as well as interpreting in asylum and other administrative procedures).<\/p>\n<h3 align=\"justify\"><strong>Contact<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p align=\"justify\"><strong>Departament de Traducci\u00f3 i d&#8217;Interpretaci\u00f3 i d&#8217;Estudis de l&#8217;\u00c0sia Oriental<\/strong><br \/>\nUniversitat Aut\u00f2noma de Barcelona<br \/>\nEdifici K, Campus de la UAB<br \/>\n08193 Bellaterra (Cerdanyola del Vall\u00e8s)<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Tel:\u00a0 +34 935813368<br \/>\nE-mail: <a href=\"mailto:Marta.Arumi@uab.cat\">marta.arumi@uab.cat<\/a><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Created in 2009, the MIRAS (Mediation and Interpretation: Research in the Social Area) research group\u2019s main object of study is Public Service Interpreting (PSI).
