The fifth International Conference on the Mental Lexicon brings together 
psycholinguistic, neurolinguistic, and computational research on the 
representation and processing of words in the mind/brain. The conference 
encourages a variety of perspectives on lexical representation and processing. 
The conference will be held at McGill University. With Mount Royal as a 
backdrop, McGill's main campus is set in the heart of downtown Montreal, one 
of the most exciting cities in North America, with three million residents and 
four universities. 

Keynote Speaker: Dr. Angela Friederici
Max Planck Institute of Human Cognitive and Brain Sciences, Leipzig, Germany

We are currently accepting abstract submissions for platform and poster 
presentations. As in previous years, we anticipate an excellent selection of 
top quality research presentations and posters on topics that range from 
models of the representation of words in the mind to neurolinguistic studies 
of lexical impairment. The conference will include both 15-minute platform 
presentations and poster sessions on each day. We are pleased to announce that 
in addition to the submitted presentations, Dr. Angela Friederici (Max Planck 
Institute of Human Cognitive and Brain Sciences) will give the invited 
address. The language of the conference is English. 

The extended deadline for receipt of abstracts is May 1st, 2006. Acceptance 
letters will be e-mailed in June 2006 following selection by the scientific 
advisory committee.
