The Language Acquisition Research Center at UMass will host a conference on Formal Approaches to Heritage Language on April 21-22.
They are soliciting abstracts for presentations or posters on both theoretical and acquisition issues that connect Heritage to L1 or L2 research. Priority will be given to work that addresses specific theoretical domains, such as, but not limited to: aspect, binding, quantification, movement, agreement, case, tense, and mood.
Abstract deadline: February 29, 2012
