Dear Colleague:

This mailing includes the Call for Papers for the 38th Annual Meeting of the Academy of Aphasia. You will find enclosed the General Guidelines for submitting abstracts as well as a copy of the Information Sheet that should accompany your submission. A separate information sheet must accompany each abstract and must be received by April 1, 2000. Alternatively, you may mail a disk with 8 hard copies of your abstract to:

Luci Varian
Administrative Assistant
Academy of Aphasia
c/o East Bay Institute for Research and Education
150 Muir Rd (126-S)
Martinez, CA  94553

This too must be received by April 1, 2000 - due to abstract publication requirements, there will be no exceptions to this submission deadline. The Program Committee will notify you of its decision by e-mail, therefore, your e-mail address must accompany each electronic submission. If you wish to receive this notification by surface mail, you must enclose a self-addressed label with each submitted abstract. The Program Committee welcomes all types of unique clinical, experimental and theoretical papers from any field that contributes to the study of aphasia, including (but not limited to) Speech-Language Pathology, Psychology, Neurology, Linguistics, and Computational Modeling. We encourage your submission of platform papers, poster presentations and thematically organized multi-presenter symposia. We look forward to seeing you in Montreal, Canada in late October.


Sincerely,

Malcolm R. McNeil, Ph.D.
