This workshop focuses on advances on the understanding of the biological basis of language (Lenneberg 1967, Jenkins 2000, 2004, Chomsky 2002, 2005, 2011, Piattelli-Palmarini et al. 2009, Larson et al 2010, Di Sciullo et al. 2010, Di Sciullo and Boeckx 2011). The workshop invites contributions where specific biolinguistic hypotheses are substantiated by theoretical linguistics evidence, empirical data and biological/natural world evidence. The workshop includes the following thematic sessions: 

  1. Language and biology
  2. Language typology and language universals
  3. The effects of natural laws
Session 1 Language and biology, addresses the question of how studies in language and genetics, language and the brain contribute to our understanding of the nature of syntax, morphology, the lexicon, and their interfaces with the other cognitive systems.

Session 2 Language typology and language universals, considers how biolinguistic studies on language evolution and variation shed new light on language typology, and the study of language universals. The questions raised in this session are the following: how is variation and change in the natural world related to language variation and change, and how the biolinguistic perspective may lead to new approaches to language typology and universals. 

Session 3 The effects of natural laws, discusses recent proposals on the effect of natural laws, such as prominence, symmetry breaking, reaction-diffusion, preservation of the shape etc. on language derivations and representations, on language variation and evolution, and on language acquisition. How do these laws interact with natural language?

Linguistics is a very exciting field to go explore and do research on. Languages have been present along with humans for a very long time. It has changed over the years of human evolution and development. The factors and reasons for this linguistic evolution are intriguing in fact.

Thanks for your write-up. I also think laptop computers have grown to be more and more popular nowadays, and now tend to be the only kind of computer used in a household. This is due to the fact that at the same time actually becoming more and more cost-effective, their working power is growing to the point where these are as highly effective as pc's from just a few in years past.
