[apologies for cross-posting]

PhDs in Logic VII

May 14-16th, 2015
VIENNA, AUSTRIA

http://phdsinlogic.logic-cs.at

The submission deadline is extended to February 19, 2015.

FINAL CALL FOR ABSTRACTS AND PARTICIPATION

PhDs in Logic is an annual graduate conference in logic. Each year we
invite four established researchers in various branches of logic to do a
tutorial on their work in two 45-minute sessions. We also give PhD
students the opportunity to do a twenty-minute presentation on (a) their
own work or (b) an overview of some topic in their field.

The conference includes the following tutorial speakers.

Thomas Eiter (Vienna University of Technology)
Michael Moortgat (Universiteit Utrecht)
Revantha Ramanayake (Vienna University of Technology)
Torsten Schaub (University Potsdam)

PhD students in logic with a background in philosophy, computer science,
mathematics or linguistics are the intended audience for these
tutorials. They are also the type of students we have in mind for our
thirty-minute student sessions. Students interested in doing a talk
should send a 500-1000 word blinded abstract to
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=pil2015 by February 19th, 2015.
The selection of the talks will follow a double-blind review process.
Please make sure that your name and affiliation are not included in the
abstract.

We welcome students to participate in PhDs in Logic VII regardless of
whether they want to do a presentation. We also invite master students
in logic, first year postdocs, and logicians from disciplines other than
philosophy, computer science, mathematics and linguistics to apply.
Students interested in participating without giving a talk should
contact us at phdsinlogic@gmail.com.
