Meeting Description:

The Penn Linguistics Conference (PLC) is an annual conference in general
linguistics. It aims to bring together researchers from different subfields,
and is open to submissions from faculty, students, and independent
researchers. PLC 45 will be held virtually, allowing linguists from all around
the world to participate. In addition to discussing their papers at the
conference, accepted authors will have the chance to publish their work in the
conference proceedings. PLC 45 will feature a special session devoted to the
presentation of undergraduate research. Undergraduate students are warmly
encouraged to submit an abstract showcasing their research in any subfield of
linguistics and related disciplines.

Keynote Speaker: Caroline Heycock (The University of Edinburgh)

Special Panel on Rules and Generalizations in Language in the Brain
Panel Moderator: Kathryn Schuler (University of Pennsylvania)


Call for Papers: 

We welcome papers in linguistics and associated fields on any topic and in any
approach. Session topics in recent years have included - but are not limited
to - phonetics, phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, psycholinguistics,
sociolinguistics, and pragmatics. We encourage abstracts on both spoken and
signed languages. Speakers will have twenty minutes for each presentation,
followed by five minutes for discussion and questions. The conference will
also include a virtual poster session. Abstracts should indicate whether they
are being submitted for consideration as a talk, poster, or both. 

Length: Please limit abstracts to two single-spaced pages in 12pt font,
including examples, figures, and references. Examples and figures may be
interspersed with text. Abstracts should be anonymized: please do not include
your name or affiliation within the abstract.

Format: To facilitate the review process, please submit your abstract as a
.pdf file.

Please submit papers at https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=plc45 by
November 12, 2020. For full instructions, please see the conference website.
