6 July 2008, Erudition and Empiricism: The Intertwining of the Humanities and the Sciences in Early Modern Europe, Oxford, UK
This symposium aims to explore the impact of the humanities in Early Modern Europe (in particular philology, grammar, logic and history) and to understand the mutual interaction between the humanities and the natural sciences. Such a comparative approach has rarely been investigated.
Questions that will be addressed are: What were the major discoveries and inventions in the humanities? What was the role of the humanities in the development of the natural sciences and the scientific revolution? Was there a (historical) revolution in the humanities? The papers of this panel show how closely intertwined the practices of the humanities and natural sciences were, and how the same scholar could combine both practices in the same piece of work. The papers highlight through a rich set of examples one of the most intriguing features of the early modern sciences: the interlocking of philological learning and observational skills -- the connection between erudition and empiricism.
Organizers: Rens Bod and Jaap Maat. For more information, see http://staff.science.uva.nl/~rens/paneloxford.pdf

23-24 July 2008, Psychocomputational Models of Human Language Acquisition (PsychoCompLA-2008), Washington DC Call for Abstracts
The workshop will present research and foster discussion centered around psychologically-motivated computational models of language acquisition. In recent decades there has been a thriving research agenda that applies computational learning techniques to emerging natural language technologies and many meetings, conferences and workshops in which to present such research. However, there have been only a few (but growing number of) venues in which psychocomputational models of how humans acquire their native language(s) are the primary focus.
For more information, see http://www.colag.cs.hunter.cuny.edu/psychocomp/
The Programme Committee cordially invites all researchers to submit their papers for presentation. Submission deadline is June 15, 2008
21-24 October 2008, Foundations of the Formal Sciences VII (FotFS VII): Bringing Together Philosophy and Sociology of Science, Vrije Universiteit Brussel, Belgium
Both philosophy and sociology of science aim at understanding the workings of scientific endeavour. Despite their different emphasis and possibly methodology, they deal with the same subject matter. And yet, they seem to be worlds apart. The study of sociology of science is strongly influenced by the continental tradition, whereas the philosophy of science has been the near exclusive playground for analytic approaches. There is also the central issue of the so-called "science wars": the question of the the proper relationship between humanities and natural sciences. In the early days, the sociology of science explicitly set its task as being complementary to that of philosophy, but current sociology of science focuses on social organization, epistemic content and cultural aspects of science, breaking down the barrier respected by their ancestors, resulting in an approach seemingly incompatible and openly at odds with that of philosophy of science.
The good news is that, in the course of the last few decades, steps have been taken towards a (partial) reconciliation. We see our conference FotFS VII as part of this process, bringing sociological aspects into philosophy of science and philosophical aspects into sociology of science, by bringing together researchers from both areas.
For more information, see http://www.math.uni-bonn.de/people/fotfs/VII/. The conference is co-located with the workshop PhiMSAMP-4 (25-26 october 2008).
The Programme Committee cordially invites all researchers to submit their papers for presentation. Deadline for submission: 15 July 2008

7-11 January 2009, 3rd Indian Conference on Logic and its Application, Chennai (India)
ALI, the Association for Logic in India, announces the next edition of its biennial International Conference on Logic and its Applications (ICLA), to be held at the Institute of Mathematical Sciences, Chennai, from January 7 to 11, 2009.
ICLA is a forum for bringing together researchers from a wide variety of fields that formal logic plays a significant role in, along with mathematicians, philosophers and logicians studying foundations of formal logic in itself. A special feature of this conference is the inclusion of studies in systems of logic in the Indian tradition, and historical research on logic.
The earlier events in this series featured many eminent logicians as invited speakers, as will be the case this year as well. See http://ali.cmi.ac.in/icla2009/ for updates on this conference as well as links to information on past events.
Authors are invited to submit papers presenting original and unpublished research in any area of logic and applications. Of special interest are articles on historical Indian systems of logic, especially in relation to modern logical studies. Deadline for Submission: 18 July 2008.

24 July 2008, Rules and Exemplars in Computational Language Acquisition, Washington D.C.
This workshop aims to discuss differences and convergences across a number of representative models of language acquisition, in the context of recent results in human language learning. In particular, we want to contribute to a better understanding of the interplay between prior knowledge and linguistic experience (rules and exemplars) in modeling the acquisition process of complex linguistic phenomena.

23 June - 15 August 2008, Summer Internship in Language and Speech Processing, Baltimore MD, U.S.A.
The Center for Language and Speech Processing at the Johns Hopkins University is seeking outstanding members of the current junior class to participate in a summer workshop on language engineering from June 23 to August 15, 2008.
The eight-week workshop provides a vigorously stimulating and enriching intellectual environment and we hope it will encourage students to eventually pursue graduate study in the field of human language technologies.
