    Meeting Description:

    This workshop focuses on original papers that deal with the interaction between morphology and syntax (as in agreement, case, functional categories, ellipsis) from a generative perspective. The goal is to allow the exchange of research between closely related fields and discuss recent theoretical positions (such as Distributed Morphology and the Copy Theory of Movement) with respect to how they deal with morphology-syntax interface problems.
