Meeting Description:

The Days of Swiss Linguistics Conference takes places every two years and it is organized by one of the Swiss universities on behalf of the Swiss Linguistics Society. In 2016 the 9th edition of The Days of Swiss Linguistics conference will be held at University of Geneva from 29th of June until 1st of July 2016.

The Days of Swiss Linguistics is an international conference welcoming senior and junior researchers from Europe and beyond. 

The theme of this year's conference is:

Diversity of structures and meanings in natural language: empirical, experimental and theoretical approaches

Call for Papers:

The call for papers opens the submission of abstracts for oral presentations for one of the three suggested parallel sessions and the poster session.

Submission Guidelines:

Please indicate if you want to submit your abstract for oral presentation or poster

The deadline for all abstracts is 30 October 2015.

The notification of acceptance will be given by 31 of January 2016.

Abstracts are submitted via my9SDL. They should be inserted in the ''contributions'' box. The abstract may be modified until the deadline for the submission, which is 30 October 2015.

Guidelines for the Abstracts

- Abstracts should clearly state research questions, approach, method, data and (expected) results.
- They must be anonymous and should not contain the names of the presenters, or any other information that may reveal their authorship.
- Information about the author (name, affiliation, address) will be provided in the form contained in your personal account on my9SDL. 
- Abstracts should not exceed 500 words (including examples but excluding title and references). Only references mentioned in the text may be listed.
- One person may submit a single-authored abstract, a single-authored abstract and a co-authored one (not as first author), or two co-authored abstracts (only one as first author). Presentations will be maximally 20 minutes, allowing 10 minutes for discussion and room changes.
- French and English are the official languages of the conference. Your abstract should be written in one of the two languages in order to facilitate the reviewing process. The oral presentation may be carried out in French, English, German or Italian. 

Reviewing Procedure:

Abstracts will be selected by a two-blind review, from a panel of at least 20 reviewers. The acceptance of a paper depends on the quality of the abstract. A series of abstracts that have not been retained after the reviewing process will be reserved as alternative presentations on a waiting list in case of cancelations.
