Meeting Description:

The 55th Annual Meeting of the Academy of Aphasia will be held at the Sheraton
Inner Harbor Hotel in Baltimore, USA.  

Academy of Aphasia:

The Academy of Aphasia is an organization made up of researchers who study the
language problems of people who have neurological diseases. Some of these
researchers also provide clinical services to help people improve their
language skills following strokes or other illnesses. Although this web site
is primarily for the service of members, we have provided a few links
containing general information for people with aphasia.

2nd Call for Papers:

The deadline for submissions has been extended to May 2, Tuesday, 11:59 pm
PST.

The 55th Annual Meeting of the Academy of Aphasia will be held at the Sheraton
Inner Harbor Hotel in Baltimore, USA. The Academy of Aphasia welcomes
submissions of original experimental, clinical, theoretical, and historical
research from any field that contributes to the study of aphasia, including
Speech-Language Pathology, Psychology, Neurology, Neuroscience, Linguistics,
History, and Computational Modeling.

Presentation types. The annual meeting includes both platform and poster
sessions.

Platform sessions include:

- Scientific papers—consisting of original research that has not yet been
published.
- Symposia—consisting of a number of papers focusing on a common theme from
researchers representing different laboratories. These papers may report on
previously published research.
- Mini-Workshops—methodologically oriented sessions consisting of a number of
papers reporting a unique approach to a timely topic. The authors of these
papers may be from a single research group.

Poster sessions include:

- Scientific papers that can be presented primarily in a visual format.

The Academy considers poster sessions to be as scientifically meritorious as
platform sessions. Poster sessions will not conflict with platform sessions.

Guidelines for abstract content. The submitted abstract should provide a
concise statement of the problem or hypothesis, procedures and analyses
conducted, results obtained, and final conclusion(s) drawn. Abstracts may
include a maximum of 500 words (excluding references) as well as one
camera-ready figure/table (in JPEG only). American Psychological Association
(APA) format should be used for references. Submissions that do not meet these
guidelines will not be reviewed.

Symposia and Mini-Workshops. In the case of symposia and mini-workshops, the
organizer should submit an abstract summarizing the topic, including the names
and affiliations of all the participants, and the titles of the other
abstracts. In addition, an abstract should be submitted for each of the
individual presentations. To help in the planning of the program, it is
recommended that organizers of symposia and mini-workshops contact the chair
of the Program Committee by e-mail (yfshah at umd.edu) about their plans to get
feedback on organizational issues.

Authorship of submissions. More than one abstract may be submitted by an
individual, but an individual can be listed as first author on only one
submission. Both members and non-members of the Academy are encouraged to
submit proposals for scientific papers, symposia and mini-workshops. Student
papers must be co-authored by a member of the Academy. All submissions will be
given equal consideration on the basis of their scientific merit and fitness
for the Academy.

Conference participation. The meeting is open to anyone interested in
attending. However, meeting space is limited, and Academy of Aphasia members,
authors of accepted papers, and the first authors of rejected papers will have
preference if space limitations restrict the number of registrants.
Submission procedures. Proposals must be submitted on-line at:
http://www.frontiersin.org/MyFrontiers/Events/InviteEvents.aspx?eid=4520 .
