In the months prior to STEP2021 main event (TBA), we are offering a series
of virtual tutorials and events.

We are excited to announce a Panel Discussion organized and emceed by Drs.
Jennifer Hinnell and Elena Nicoladis (Alberta) on the state-of-the-art
(present) and future of the research on (the relationship between) speech
and gesture.

The list of speakers and their affiliations:

   - Gale Stam - Professor Emerita, National Louis University
   - Kensy Cooperrider - Cognitive scientist, affiliated researcher
   Department of Psychology, University of Chicago
   - Olga Capirci - Research Director at Institute of Cognitive Sciences

Panelists will each have 10 minutes in which they’ll address two

gestures but don’t (yet) have convincing evidence for?) - then there will
be 30 minutes for discussion for 90 minutes total.
