Meeting Description: 

We are very happy to announce that the 33rd Annual CUNY Conference on Human
Sentence Processing will take place at the University of Massachusetts,
Amherst, from March 19-21, 2020. The CUNY conference is the central North
American venue for work in sentence processing, including research into the
comprehension, production, and acquisition of language at the level of the
sentence. Our conference is highly interdisciplinary, with strong
contributions from researchers in Linguistics, Psychology, Neuroscience,
Cognitive Science, Computer Science, Education, and Philosophy alike.

The conference website may be found at:
https://www.umass.edu/linguistics/cuny2020. You may reach us at
cunyumass at gmail.com.   

Abstracts will be due on December 5, 2019; a call for submissions and
instructions on how to submit will be disseminated later this summer. 

The 2020 conference features a special session entitled ''The role of
linguistic theory in psycholingusitics.'' This special session seeks to
highlight the important interdisciplinary relationship between linguists and
other cognitive scientists at the heart of the CUNY community. This
interdisciplinary bond has never been stronger, or more fruitful. A tight
integration of work in linguistic theory and psycholinguistics has led to an
explosion of interesting new findings in a range of areas, from prosody's role
in syntactic comprehension on up to the neural computation of elementary
semantic composition operations. The CUNY conference has helped contribute to
this happy state of affairs, and our special session seeks to highlight the
insight that our field has generated by exploring the back and forth between
work in linguistics and in psychology. We have seven speakers lined up for the
special session:

- Elsi Kaiser (USC)
- Liina Pylkkänen (NYU)
- Hannah Rohde (University of Edinburgh)
- Florian Schwarz (UPenn)
- Patrick Sturt (University of Edinbrugh)
- Matt Wagers (UC Santa Cruz)
- Duane Watson (Vanderbilt)

For further information on travel to UMass, and the area, please consult the
website. We look forward to welcoming you to the Pioneer Valley in 2020!

Until then,

The CUNY 2020 Organizing Committee
Adrian Staub, Brian Dillon, John Kingston, Lyn Frazier, Mara Breen, and Shota
Momma
