From the description of the conference:
We are pleased to announce the Twenty-Second Manchester Phonology Meeting (22mfm). The mfm is the UK's annual phonology conference, with an international set of organisers. It is held in late May every year in Manchester (central in the UK, and with excellent international transport connections). The meeting has become a key conference for phonologists from all over the world, where anyone who declares themselves to be interested in phonology can submit an abstract on anything phonological in any phonological framework. In an informal atmosphere, we discuss a broad range of topics, including the phonological description of languages, issues in phonological theory, aspects of phonological acquisition and implications of phonological change.
About Submissions:
* There is no obligatory conference theme for the 22mfm - abstracts can be submitted on anything phonological.
* We are using the Linguist List's EasyAbstracts system for abstract submission. Abstracts should be uploaded to the 22mfm's page on the EasyAbstracts site by 10th February 2014:- http://linguistlist.org/easyabs/22mfm
* Full papers will last around 25 minutes with around 5 minutes for questions, and there will be a high-profile poster session lasting one and a half hours. When you submit your abstract, you will be asked to indicate whether you would be prepared to present your work (i) either as a talk or a poster paper or (ii) only as a poster.
*See conference website for important additional details.
