Meeting Description:

The Developing Lexicon: Representations and Processing 
Workshop in the Developing Mind Series of the Child Language Lab, Macquarie
University, Sydney

Workshop description:

The lexicon forms the backbone for successful language development. However,
despite its importance, little is known about how learners store and process
phonological, morphological, syntactic and semantic aspects of lexical
representations, and the role this plays in both language processing and
speech planning.

This workshop brings together researchers working on the lexicon in language
acquisition and development - using various methodologies and paradigms - to
gain a better understanding of the architecture of the mental lexicon and its
development. Submissions are welcome on all research exploring this issue in
monolingual and multilingual children and adults, and in both typically
developing and special populations (such as those with hearing impairments and
language delays). The workshop will include keynote addresses and invited
talks by experts in the fields of linguistics, computational modelling,
cognitive science, and developmental psychology.

Registration for this workshop is free. More details on the workshop can be
found at the listed URL. For further information or enquiries, please send an
email to langdev at mq.edu.au

Keynote Speakers:

Paul Boersma (University of Amsterdam, the Netherlands)
Paula Fikkert (Radboud University, the Netherlands)
Bob McMurray (University of Iowa, USA)

Katherine Demuth, Titia Benders, Laurence Bruggeman, Carmen Kung, Nan Xu
