CfP: ESSLLI 2026 Student Session
The main focus of ESSLLI is the interface between linguistics, logic and computation, with special emphasis on human linguistic and cognitive ability.
ESSLLI invites submissions of original, unpublished work from students in any area at the intersection of Logic & Language, Language & Computation, or Logic & Computation in the form of long or short papers.

1 - 3 July 2026, CARMA 2026 - 8th International Conference on Advanced Research Methods and Analytics, Valencia [ES]
Research methods in economics and social sciences are changing quickly with AI-driven analytics, Large Language Models, and causal machine learning. New Internet and Big Data sources support fresh approaches to measurement, inference, and theory testing. As these tools become more interdisciplinary, CARMA 2026 offers a forum for researchers and practitioners to share advances in computational and data-intensive methods applied to social and economic issues, and to discuss their opportunities and challenges.
The program committee encourages the submission of articles discussing challenges related to contemporary issues in Internet and Big Data in economics and social sciences. Authors from all over the world are invited to submit original and unpublished papers or extended abstracts, which are not under review in any other conference or journal. Students with accepted papers at CARMA 2026 are eligible for grants covering conference fees and partial travel expenses.
If you are interested in organizing a special session as part of CARMA 2026, please contact the organization at carmaconf at upv.es
(Updated) 12 March 2026, Workshop on Fixpoint Logics And Proof Systems
This workshop aims to connect researchers and students interested in fixpoint logics, (cyclic) proof theory and related topics. Participation is free and no registration is required. Invited speakers are Balder ten Cate, Sebastian Enqvist, Iris van der Giessen, Marianna Girlando and Thomas Studer.
The workshop is colocated with the PhD defense of Johannes Kloibhofer on the 13th of February. More information can be found here.
29 May 2026, Anéla/VIOT Junior Day 2026 (Juniorendag)
This event provides young shcolars with an opportunity to present their research in the field of applied linguistics (language use, language acquisition, language education, language proficiency, or communication). Both lectures and poster presentations are welcome. Lectures shall last 15 minutes. Additionally, the annual Anéla-VIOT Thesis Award for the best MA-thesis in the field will be awarded on this day.
The evaluation of the abstracts will be based on the clarity of the explanation of their relevance, main research question, methodological design, and conclusion of the research. A lack of results or conclusions in the abstract don't pose an issue, as long as there will be some results to present during the event.
The abstract needs to meet the following requirements: a maximum of 250 words (excl. references); in Dutch or in English (write it in the language in which you will present); all personal information removed from the abstract (name, university); indicates the preference for a lecture or poster presentation. Submit your abstracts via this link.
28 May 2026, Language Sciences for Social Good Consortium Meeting, Lab42, Science Park
We are inviting members of the University of Amsterdam's Language Sciences for Social Good (LSG) Consortium to join a networking event on Thursday, May 28th, from 14:00 - 18:00 at LAB42 aimed at the consortium members and industry partners. We want to provide a forum to connect members of the consortium with each other and with industry partners, to discuss expectations and intentions from both sides, and to showcase what is already being done as part of this consortium.
The event will include short pitches by the industry partners, as well as poster presentations by researchers in the LSG. If you are a consortium member, you are welcome to present a poster at this event (this can be a poster that you already prepared for a different conference). If you are interested in presenting a poster, please provide us with a title and short description for the program before March 13th. You can do so by sending an e-mail to one of the organizers.

21 - 25 September 2026, 16th International Conference on Formal Ontology in Information Systems (FOIS 2026), Vitória [BR] and online (9 September)
FOIS is a meeting point for all researchers with an interest in formal ontology. FOIS aims to be a nexus of interdisciplinary research and communication for researchers from many domains engaging with formal ontology.
Common application areas include conceptual modeling, database design, knowledge engineering and management, software engineering, organizational modeling, artificial intelligence, robotics, computational linguistics, the life sciences, bioinformatics and scientific research in general, geographic information science, information retrieval, library and information science, as well as the Semantic Web.
The conference encourages submission of high quality, not previously published results on both theoretical issues and practical advancements. FOIS 2026 will have distinct tracks for foundational issues, ontology applications and methods, and domain ontologies.
FOIS seeks full papers on three tracks: foundational track, methods, and onthology.
13 - 15 July 2026, Logic, Relativity and Beyond, Budapest [HU]
There are several new and rapidly evolving research areas blossoming out from the interaction of logic and relativity theory. This conference series, which take place once every 2 or 3 years, hopes to attract and bring together mathematicians, physicists, philosophers of science, and logicians from all over the world interested in these and related areas to exchange new ideas, problems and results.
The spirit of this conference series goes back to the Vienna Circle and to the initiative Logic, Methodology and Philosophy of Science by Alfred Tarski and others. The aim is to provide a friendly atmosphere that enables fruitful interdisciplinary cooperation leading to joint research and publications.
Submit your abstract (or extended abstract) for your talk via the following link:
<https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=lrb26>
Extended abstracts are not required, but in case of submission, they should be no more than 2 pages, and should be submitted in PDF formatted for A4 paper.
6 - 10 July 2025, PLS15 – Fifteenth Panhellenic Logic Symposium, Athens [GR]
The Panhellenic Logic Symposium is a biennial scientific event that was established in 1997. It aims to promote interaction and cross-fertilization among different areas of logic. Originally conceived as a way of bringing together the many logicians of Hellenic descent throughout the world, the PLS has evolved into an international forum for the communication of state-of-the-art advances in logic. The symposium is open to researchers worldwide who work in logic broadly conceived.
Areas of interest include (but are not limited to): Categorical logic Computability theory History of Logic Logic in Computer Science Logic in Human Reasoning Model theory Nonclassical and modal logics Philosophical logic Proof theory Reasoning in AI Set theory
Papers should be written in English, a maximum of 5 pages long, and prepared (in PDF format) using the EasyChair class style. Submissions will happen through EasyChair. Graduate students and early-career researchers are invited to submit a short, 1-page abstract on preliminary work that may not be ready for a full talk yet.
