Meeting Description: 

The first Words in the World International Conference will take place October
16-18, 2020  and will include scholarly presentations as well as discussion
panels.

The conference brings together psycholinguistic, neurolinguistic, and
computational research on the representation and processing of words in the
mind/brain. The conference will strive to create presentation opportunities
for trainees (e.g., undergraduate students, graduate students, postdoctoral
fellows, recent graduates and others). We encourage students and postdoctoral
fellows from all over the world to present their in-progress or completed work
at this conference and engage in conversations with their colleagues on
academic and non-academic topics. Papers presented can, of course, include a
mix of trainees and faculty members.

The deadline for receipt of abstracts is August 1, 2020. All further
information about the WoW International Conference is available at
http://wordsintheworld.ca/.  Please spread the word and show your commitment
to continuous progress of science and education by supporting this new
initiative for trainees!
