INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON
MODELS OF INTERACTION IN BILINGUALS

Bangor, Wales, United Kingdom

October 24 - 26, 2008

The ESRC Centre for Bilingualism in Theory and Practice invites 
submissions for talks and posters on the topic of "Models of 
Interaction in Bilinguals", broadly defined to include, e.g., 
interaction between the bilingual's two languages, interaction between 
language and cognition, interaction between bilinguals' writing 
systems/literacy, and any other relevant topic.

INVITED SPEAKERS
Ellen Bialystok, York University and Rotman Research Institute of the 
Baycrest Centre for Geriatric Care, Toronto
Ton Dijkstra, Nijmegen Institute for Cognition and Information, The 
Netherlands
David Green, UCL Institute of Cognitive Neuroscience and Dept. of 
Psychology, University College London, UK
Judith Kroll, Pennsylvania State University, USA
Ping Li, University of Richmond, Virginia, USA
Núria Sebastián Gallés, Universitat de Barcelona, Spain

Oral Presentations will be half hour talks.  N.B.:  All invited and 
accepted speakers must submit a short version of their talk prior to 
the conference, for circulation to other presenters and for 
availability through our website to other participants.
Posters should be 80 x 120 cm (A0) or less.

The word limit for abstracts for oral presentations and posters is 200 
words, excluding references, title, and author information.

[Note: A selection of papers from the conference will be submitted to a 
peer-review process for possible inclusion in a special issue of 
International Journal of Bilingual Education and Bilingualism on 
"Models of Interaction in Bilinguals", with Virginia Gathercole as 
Guest Editor.  We will invite all oral presenters to submit more 
complete copies of their papers for consideration, and all poster 
presenters will be invited to similarly submit papers for possible 
inclusion.  A separate call will also go out for possible submissions 
from outside the conference.  All papers will be peer-reviewed.  Please 
note that paper submission will not guarantee acceptance, however.]

Deadline for submission of abstracts: December 1, 2007
Abstracts will be submitted and processed electronically, at
