      – 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
