Call for Contributions for the Doctoral Colloquium at Spatial Cognition 2012

 

Current Ph.D. students are invited to submit a contribution for inclusion in the doctoral colloquium which will be held during the Spatial Cognition 2012. The conference will be held from August 31, 2012 - September 03, 2012 in Abbey Kloster Seeon close to the Chiemsee Lake in Bavaria, Germany.

The doctoral colloquium will involve short (20 minute) presentations by students and discussion by a panel of faculty from universities in the U.S. and Europe. Students will have the opportunity to discuss their work with each other.

Doctoral colloquium presentations will be listed in the conference program but will not be published in the proceedings (and hence may be published elsewhere)

Submissions should be brief abstracts of the work, describing the theoretical motivation for the work, the primary methods, and a short summary of the results. Submissions should be no longer than 400 words. The student’s name, email address, and website URL should be provided. The deadline for submission is April 1, 2012.

Submissions for the doctoral colloquium should be sent in an email attachment (in .doc, .docx, .rtf, or .pdf format) to duttal@northwestern.edu. Please include the words “Doctorial Colloquium Submission” in the subject of the email. Questions can be addressed to the same email.
