Meeting Description:

The Leipzig Lectures on Language—Combinatorics 2021 will finish with a virtual
two-day symposium on October 20-21, 2021.

This end-of-year symposium will:
- Aim to find consensus across the different view presented during the online
series.
- Feature William Matchin and Simona Mancini as keynote speakers whose work is
particularly relevant to the theme of the lecture series and hands-on
sessions.
- Offer four hands-on workshops on advanced methodologies relevant to the
study of combinatorics in language taught by experts
(https://www.cbs.mpg.de/1744420/lll-workshop). Topics will include grammatical
predictors for fMRI, computational modelling in language development,
eye-tracking and computational parsing, as well as language evolution and
animal vocal communication.
- Bring together the community in a poster session and more informal gathering
to exchange ideas on future research.

The goal of the event is to foster networking and collaborations, leading to
new ideas on how to move the field forward.

Registration is free of charge for researchers of all levels (undergraduate
students, graduate students, post-docs, as well as faculty). Notice that every
hand-on session is limited to about 30 participants. Submitting an abstract is
optional, however, researchers who submit an abstract for the virtual poster
session during the registration process will be given priority.

Call for Papers: 

We welcome abstract submissions for the virtual poster session to be held
during the end-of-year symposium of the Leipzig Lectures on
Language—Combinatorics 2021.

Topics: Possible contributions should focus on combinatorics in language, an
umbrella term we use to include concepts such as compositionality,
combination, composition, binding, Merge, and blending in different linguistic
domains. We invite scholars from the cognitive sciences including linguistics,
psychology, evolutionary anthropology, and related disciplines to contribute
their original empirical and theoretical research.

Formatting guidelines: Abstracts are limited to 2500 characters including
references (if any). This limit does not include  title, authors, and
affiliations. It is not mandatory to include references. Each author can
appear as first author on one poster only. The submission system does not
allow figures in abstracts. Abstracts should include the following sections:
Introduction, Methods, Results, and Conclusion or Summary. The sections do not
need to be labeled. Deviations from this structure (e.g, when presenting
theoretical work) are permissible. It is, however, important that each
abstract contains sufficiently detailed information. There are no further
specific formatting guidelines.

Work in Progress: We encourage submissions of both completed and ongoing
studies, as well as projects in earlier stages. In case of the latter, it is
recommended to include detailed information on the planned sample size, the
experimental design, and the planned analysis. Discussion of pilot data is
also welcome. In this case, submissions should highlight the preliminary
nature of the data and how the results can be used to inform future studies.

Please find further details regarding the abstract submission and registration
process here: https://www.cbs.mpg.de/1744420/lll-workshop.
(Registration/abstract submission deadline: July 14.)
