Meeting Description:	The 5th International Conference on Language, Culture and Mind (LCM V) will be held on 27-29 June 2012 at the Catholic University of Portugal in Lisbon. It will be preceded by a Young Researchers Workshop on 26 June 2012 (same venue), in which young researchers will present their ongoing dissertation projects and current work. The goals of LCM conferences are to contribute to situating the study of language in a contemporary interdisciplinary dialogue (involving philosophy, linguistics, psychology, anthropology, semiotics and other related fields), and to promote a better integration of cognitive and cultural perspectives in empirical and theoretical studies of language. http://www.salc-sssk.org/lcm/ The theme for LCM V is ‘Integrating Semiotic Resources in Communication and Creativity’. The conference will include two round tables on the sub-themes: Multimodality in Communication and Performance Creativity, Imagination and Innovation Plenary speakers: Nick Enfield, Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics, Nijmegen (http://www.mpi.nl/people/enfield-nick) Cynthia Lightfoot, Department of Human Development and Family Studies, Pennsylvania State University (http://www.brandywine.psu.edu/Academics/faculty_cgl3.htm) Dan Slobin, Departments of Psychology and Linguistics, University of California, Berkeley (http://linguistics.berkeley.edu/people/person_detail.php?person=35) Beata Stawarska, Department of Philosophy, University of Oregon (http://pages.uoregon.edu/uophil/faculty/profiles/stawarsk/) Sherman Wilcox, Department of Linguistics, University of New Mexico (http://web.mac.com/swilcox/UNM/Welcome.html) International LCM Organizing Committee: Alan Cienki, Vrije Universiteit, Amsterdam, Language and Communication Barbara Fultner, Denison University, Philosophy John Lucy, University of Chicago, Comparative Human Development and Psychology Aliyah Morgenstern, Université Sorbonne Nouvelle-Paris 3, Linguistics Anneli Pajunen, University of Tampere, Finnish Language Esther Pascual, University of Groningen, Communication Studies Victor Rosenthal, Inserm-EHESS, Paris Chris Sinha, Lund University, Linguistics/Cognitive Semiotics Jordan Zlatev, Lund University, Linguistics/Cognitive Semiotics LCM V Local Organizing Committee: Ana Margarida Abrantes, Catholic University of Portugal, Centre for the Study of Communication and Culture Peter Hanenberg, Catholic University of Portugal, Centre for the Study of Communication and Culture
