[CogSci] Words in the World International Conference 2021

[Juhani Järvikivi]

We are excited to announce the Second Edition of The Words in the World
(WoW) International Conference (WOW2021). In the spirit of the first WOW
Conference held in 2020, this virtual gathering offers a venue for the
communication of ideas, intellectual exchange, and networking for trainees.
We encourage students and postdoctoral fellows from all over the world to
present their in-progress or completed work on the mental lexicon and word
and language processing & representation in different contexts — from the
lab to the real world — and in diverse populations across the life span. We
invite presenters and attendees to engage in conversations with their
colleagues on both academic research and non-academic topics.

This conference will take place online November 26-27, 2021.

The Conference will include both brief (10-minute) talks via Zoom as well
as posters that will take place in gather.town. The conference will strive
to create presentation opportunities for trainees (for example,
undergraduate students, graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, recent
graduates, and others). Papers presented can, of course, include a mix of
trainees and faculty members as authors. Non-trainee first-authored papers
will be considered for poster presentation only.

Abstract submission deadline: September 10, 2021

Submissions open: August 15, 2021

Decisions of the Scientific Committee will be announced: October 10, 2021

All further information, including submission guidelines, will be made
available at http://wordsintheworld.ca

With very best wishes,
