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/ 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 Call for Papers: 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 We invite submissions of individual papers, posters and symposium proposals.

The workshop aims at providing a forum for presenting results and foster interaction and debate in the context of interdisciplinary collaboration. Young researchers in anthropology, biology, linguistics, philosophy, psychology, semiotics, semantics, discourse analysis, cognitive and neuroscience are invited to share, and thereby enrich, their study of human natural language and communication. A specialist's comment on each accepted contribution makes the workshop a unique opportunity to receive expert feedback.
