Meeting Description:

The Evolang conference series provides the major meeting for researchers
worldwide in the origins and evolution of language. The Evolang conferences
are interdisciplinary, with contributions from disciplines including, but not
limited to: anthropology, archeology, artificial life, biology, cognitive
science, genetics, linguistics, modeling, paleontology, physiology,
primatology, and psychology. Typically, about 300 delegates attend, with
representatives from all these disciplines.


Call for Papers: 

The 12th International Conference on the Evolution of Language (Toruń, Poland,
16-19 April, 2018) invites substantive contributions relating to the evolution
of human language. Submissions should be made by September 15, 2017;
notification of acceptance will be made by December 1 2017. 

Submissions may be in any relevant discipline, including, but not limited to:
anthropology, archeology, artificial life, biology, cognitive science,
genetics, linguistics, modeling, paleontology, physiology, primatology,
philosophy, semiotics, and psychology. Normal standards of academic excellence
apply.

Submitted papers should aim to make clear their own substantive claim,
relating this to the relevant, up to date scientific literature in the field
of language evolution. Submissions should set out the method by which the
claim is substantiated, the nature of the relevant data, and/or the core of
the theoretical argument concerned. Novel and original theory-based
submissions are welcome. Submissions centred around empirical studies should
not rest on preliminary results.

Please see http://evolang.org/submissions for submission templates and further
guidance on submission preparation. Submissions can be made via EasyChair
(https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=evolang12) by September 15, 2017 for
both podium presentations (20 minute presentation with additional time for
discussion) and poster presentations.

All submissions will be refereed by at least three relevant referees, and
acceptance is based on a scoring scheme pooling the reports of the referees.
In recent conferences, the acceptance rate has been about 50%. Notification of
acceptance will be given by December 1, 2017. 

For any questions regarding submissions to the main conference please contact
scientific-committee at evolang.org. There will be a separate call for satellite
workshops. For further information about the conference venue and
registration, see http://evolang.cles.umk.pl .
