We will be accepting two kinds of submissions: symposium proposals and abstracts for 20-minute talks or posters (see below for deadlines).

CALL FOR ABSTRACTS

Submissions of 500-word abstracts for 20-minute talks and posters will be accepted beginning April 1, 2019 at: http://www.bu.edu/bucld/abstracts/abstract-submission/

DEADLINE: All abstract submissions must be received by 8:00 PM EST, May 1, 2019. Please note this is an earlier deadline than in previous years.

Submissions that present research on any topic in the fields of first and second language acquisition from any theoretical perspectives will be fully considered.

Abstracts must be limited to 500 words, with one extra page for examples, figures, tables, and references. A suggested format and style for abstracts is available at: http://www.bu.edu/bucld/abstracts/abstract-format/

General conference information is available at: http://www.bu.edu/bucld

We encourage submissions from scholars in countries affected by the new travel restrictions. We will arrange remote presentation for accepted abstracts by scholars who are unable to attend for this reason.
