We are pleased to announce that the first ever Oxford Linguistics
Postgraduate Conference - LingO - will take place at the University of
Oxford, Mansfield College, on 23rd-24th September 2005. The purpose of the
conference is to provide postgraduates with an opportunity to present their
research.

Abstracts are invited from any linguistic subfield, especially the fields
of syntax, semantics, phonetics, phonology, morphology and computational
linguistics.

Please see the Presentation Guidelines on our website
(http://www.ling-phil.ox.ac.uk/events/lingo) for further information and to
submit an abstract.

Authors are invited to submit abstracts for talks or poster presentations.
Talks will be allotted 30 minutes for presentation and 10 minutes for
discussion. Speakers will also be invited to submit their papers or posters
for publication in our online conference proceedings.

When submitting, please:

presentation.
