-# Department of Linguistics and Philology – Uppsala University
+# Computational Linguistics – Uppsala University
 
-The **Department of Linguistics and Philology** at Uppsala University is a leading center for research and education in languages and computational linguistics. It is one of four departments in the Faculty of Languages.
+The **Computational Linguistics Group** at Uppsala University (often referred to as **Uppsala NLP**) is a leading research environment within the **Department of Linguistics and Philology**. 
 
-The department is broadly specialized in Asian languages and cultures, European classical languages, general linguistics, and language technology.
+We combine computer science and linguistics to analyze and process human language, with a strong empirical orientation emphasizing multilingual systems, dependency parsing, and digital humanities.
 
 ## Research & Subject Areas
 
-The department conducts research and offers education in the following primary subject areas:
+Our research is driven by both theoretical goals—understanding human language processing—and practical applications in Natural Language Processing (NLP). Key focus areas include:
 
-* **General and Applied Linguistics**
-    * Computational Linguistics (Language Technology)
-    * General Linguistics (including Swahili)
-* **Asian Languages and Cultures**
-    * Indology
-    * Iranian languages
-    * Comparative Indo-European linguistics
-    * Chinese (Sinology)
-    * Semitic languages
-    * Turkic languages
-* **The Classical Languages of Europe**
-    * Greek (including Byzantine studies)
-    * Latin
+* **Multilingual NLP:** Cross-lingual transfer learning and typologically diverse language modeling.
+* **Syntax & Parsing:** Development of algorithms for grammatical analysis, with a special focus on dependency-based parsing.
+* **Digital Philology:** Computational methods for historical texts, including handwriting recognition and cipher decoding.
+* **Machine Translation:** Neural machine translation and discourse-oriented translation models.
 
-## About the Department
+## Key Resources & Projects
 
-The department is home to more than 70 staff members, including professors, researchers, and approximately 25 doctoral students. It actively engages in research projects funded by external partners and provides education at both basic and advanced levels.
+We are actively involved in the development of several major community resources and tools:
+
+* **[Universal Dependencies (UD)](https://universaldependencies.org/):** Uppsala is a founding node of this open community effort to create cross-linguistically consistent treebank annotation for over 100 languages.
+* **[MaltParser](http://www.maltparser.org/):** A data-driven parser-generator for dependency parsing.
+* **[Swe-CLARIN](https://sweclarin.se/):** As a partner in the Common Language Resources and Technology Infrastructure, we develop and maintain tools for digital humanities research.
+* **Historical Corpora & Models:**
+    * *UU_SwedishNovels_1800-1940*: A corpus of Swedish literary novels.
+    * *SOU-corpus*: Processed versions of Swedish Government Official Reports.
+    * *DECODE*: Automatic decoding of historical manuscripts.
+
+## About the Group
+
+The Computational Linguistics group fosters a vibrant international environment with professors, researchers, and doctoral students. We offer a specialized **Master’s Programme in Language Technology** and participate heavily in the global NLP research community.
