There will be virtual "hangout sessions" on Zoom during the conference. They are meant to be informal and interactive occasions for you to talk to other linguists. All registered participants are invited to join any of them.
Each session is 60 min, and has a ‘host’ and a ‘moderator’, who will lead the session (the moderator’s role is something between a TA and a chair at a conference, e.g. they will take questions from the audience, ask questions themselves, etc.). Some sessions have topics, others don't (please see below).
If you wish to participate in any of these sessions, please simply register (for free!) on the registration page. You will receive a Zoom link together with other relevant information.
The host is on the left and the moderator is on the right. The times are in the British Summer Time zone. (Note the History of Semantics sessions in gray)
