CALL FOR PAPERS

EVOLANG IX. 13-16 March, 2012. Kyoto, Japan.

http://kyoto.evolang.org/

The 9th International Conference on the Evolution of Language invites
substantive contributions relating to the evolution of human language.
Submissions may be in any relevant discipline, including, but not
limited to, anthropology, archeology, artificial life, biology,
cognitive science, genetics, linguistics, modeling, paleontology,
physiology, primatology, and psychology. Normal standards of academic
excellence apply. Submitted papers should aim to make clear their own
substantive claim, relating this to relevant scientific literature,
and briefly setting out the method by which the claim is
substantiated, the nature of the relevant data, and/or the core of the
theoretical argument concerned. Submissions may be theory-based, but
empirical studies should not rest on preliminary results.

PLENARY SPEAKERS
The final list of plenary speakers has been announced:
Noam Chomsky
Terrence Deacon
Simon Fisher
Tetsuro Matsuzawa
Jenny Saffran
Minoru Asada
Simon Kirby
Tom Griffiths
Cedric Boeckx
Russell Gray

TYPES OF SUBMISSION
Attendees are limited to one first-authored podium presentation and
one first-authored poster per person. There is no limit on
second-authored presentations or posters. There are two possible types
of submission: Full Papers, which can have a length of between 6 and 8
pages, and Abstracts, which can be up to 2 pages long. All accepted
submissions will be published in the proceedings of the conference in
a bound volume. All papers or abstracts accepted will be allotted the
same presentation length (probably 15 minutes plus 5 minutes
discussion). In addition to podium presentations, a dedicated poster
session will be held. There will be prizes for the best student
presentation and the best poster (from any author); please see below.
Please indicate whether your submission is to be considered for
inclusion as a talk only, a poster only, or both. Submissions should
be made via the conference website: http://kyoto.evolang.org/.

awarded at each Evolang conference to the best student presentation,
as judged by the Evolang organising committee. The prize is 200GBP of
