the Architecture of Language
is an international conference focussing on the brain aspects of language functioning. The aim of the meeting is to rethink the global architecture of language by combining data from functional exploration of the brain with proposals from the linguistic and cognitive science, thus favouring the interdisciplinary dialog.

The meeting will be held in Pisa, Italy (about 100 Km NorthWest of Florence) from Thursday 8 till Saturday 10 June, 2006 (immediately before the Human Brain Mapping Conference).

Invited Speakers:
Susan Bookheimer, Stefano Cappa, Alfonso Caramazza, Angela Friederici, Brian Mac Whinney, Andrea Moro, Mark Turner, Michael Ullman
The meeting will also host a Workshop on Lexical Complexity, with presentations by Valentina Bambini, Marcella Bertuccelli Papi, Cristina Cacciari, Vittorio Gallese, Costanza Papagno, Patrizia Tabossi

CALL FOR PAPERS

The organizers invite researchers to submit abstracts for poster presentations and/or oral communications addressing topics in the fields of experimental psycholinguistics and neurolinguistics.

Abstract selection criteria

All submitted abstracts will be reviewed by at least 2 members of the Scientific Committe. Approval decisions are based upon these reviews. Authors selected for poster or oral presentations will be notified by March 31, 2006.

Abstracts selected by the Scientific Committee on the basis of scientific merit will be published in the conference proceedings, along with main speakers' contributions.

Important Note

Since ArchLang 2006 is a satellite (more focalized) event of the OHBM conference, it is conceivable that some authors wish to submit the same abstract to both events.
The two review processes are obviously independent. Nevertheless, other things equal, the ArchLang 2006 Scientific Committee will give preference to studies not submitted to the OHBM conference.
