Call for Papers:

Researchers in the areas of linguistics, psycholinguistics, cognitive science, neuroscience, neurolinguistics, speech language pathology and related fields are invited to submit abstracts that report on relevant work in the field of bilingualism and multilingualism.

Proposals regarding original research on bilingualism/multilingualism are invited in two formats: oral presentations (20 minutes) and posters.

The abstract should:

- be prepared in either 'Word' or 'PDF' format (*.doc, *.docx, *.pdf);
- be no longer than 300 words, plus title and references; and
- include enough details to allow reviewers to judge the scientific merit of the proposal.

Only one presentation as a first author is allowed. The first author will have to register for the conference in order to be assured a place on the program.
