Location: Christchurch, New Zealand 
Contact: Katherine Demuth 
Contact Email: wapsti at mq.edu.au 
Meeting URL: http://ling.mq.edu.au/clas/wapsti/index.htm 

Linguistic Field(s): Cognitive Science; Computational Linguistics; General Linguistics; Language Acquisition; Phonetics; Phonology; Psycholinguistics 

Meeting Description: 

The goal of this workshop is to bring together researchers working on various
aspects of stress, tone and intonation to discuss how these prosodic cues are
exploited by learners, and put to use in language comprehension and
production. The workshop will focus on both computational and empirical
studies of both L1 and L2 language acquisition from a variety of languages and
populations. It will include keynote addresses and invited talks by experts in
the fields of linguistics, cognitive science, computer science, and
psychology. We also invite submissions for posters related to the workshop
theme.

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Eastern Michigan University and as such can receive donations through the EMU Foundation, which is a registered 501(c) Non Profit organization. Our Federal Tax number is 38-6005986. These donations can be offset against your federal and sometimes your state tax return (U.S. tax payers only). For more information visit the IRS Web-Site, or contact your financial advisor.

Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that they will match any gift you make to a non-profit organization. Normally this entails your contacting your human resources department and sending us a form that the EMU Foundation fills in and returns to your employer.
