Submission instructions:

This workshop (which will take place on January, 28th) is part of the broader ConSOLE 2026 theme, "Movement across domains", which aims to bring together diverse strands of linguistic research, from phonology to semantics, syntax, and computational modeling. This year's workshop will welcome cutting-edge research in neurolinguistics, language acquisition, and cognitive science, focusing on the neural foundations and developmental trajectories underlying language abilities, throughout the lifespan.

We invite abstract submissions for both oral (20-minute talk plus additional 10 minutes for questions and discussion) and poster presentations. We welcome abstracts from a broad field of neurolinguistics topics and methodologies, including both basic and clinical perspectives.

Topics include (but are not limited to):
- Neurocognitive trajectories of language acquisition
- Prenatal and early postnatal predictors of linguistic abilities
- Language development in neurodivergent or clinical populations
- Language processing in healthy and pathological aging
- Experimental approaches to neurolinguistics and psycholinguistics
- Neuroimaging and electrophysiological studies of language
- Computational and statistical modeling of language
- Cross-linguistic and cross-population perspectives on language
