ISH 2012
– 16th International Symposium on Hearing,
23-27 July, Cambridge UK Second announcement – Abstract
submission open The symposium will be held at
St John’s College of the University of Cambridge from 23-27
July 2012 (Arrival on Sunday 22nd; End of symposium
Friday 27th July after lunch). For further
information see
http://hearing.psychol.cam.ac.uk/ISH2012.htm. The emphasis of the symposium
will be
Basic Aspects of Hearing: Physiology and Perception.
Priority will be given to papers that provide a new
perspective on some aspect of hearing, present new data
concerning a phenomenon in hearing, or examine links between
perception and physiology.
Only 60 contributed oral papers
will be accepted; this is the number of reasonable length
talks that fit comfortably into a one-week symposium with
plenty of time for discussion.
The maximum number of participants
will be about 100; a limited number of poster presentations
will be accepted from participants not presenting oral
papers.
The symposium proceedings
will be published by Springer (New York) as a book with the
provisional title "Basic Aspects of Hearing: Physiology
and Perception." The tentative publication date for
the book is summer 2013. Poster presentations will not be
included in the book.
The book will be published as
part of the series Advances in Experimental Medicine and
Biology, which will mean that the chapters will be indexed in
PubMed. The cost of the symposium
including registration, accomodation, meals, proceedings,
social outing, and a symposium banquet is estimated at 1000
British Pounds. The final figure will be published on the
symposium website at a time nearer to registration. Abstracts can be submitted from
1st October - 2nd December 2011. Details
of the abstract submission process may be found at
http://hearing.psychol.cam.ac.uk/ISH2012.htm. Other important dates for registration,
paper submission, etc are also available on the website.
Please note that the deadlines will be strictly enforced. Organizing committee: Hedwig Gockel, Bob Carlyon
