        Subject: Call for abstracts: Data in Historical Linguistics 2025 Seminars

We are pleased to announce that the call for abstracts for the second
series of the Data in Historical Linguistics seminar series is now open.
This seminar series will be run by King’s College London, and is aimed
at PhD students and early career researchers. The purpose of this
seminar series is to bring together researchers working on historical
linguistics with a quantitative approach, and to discuss current avenues
of research in this topic. We hope that these seminars will nurture
international collaboration and establish academic ties among
researchers working on similar topics in this field.

Seminars will start in January 2025 and will last one hour (30 minutes
of presentation + 30 minutes of discussion). All seminars will be held
remotely via Microsoft Teams at 5pm GMT. They will provisionally be held
once a month on a Monday, but this may increase up to twice a month
depending on the number of speakers.

We welcome proposals from current PhD students working on Historical
Linguistics, with an emphasis on quantitative approaches. Abstracts of a
maximum of 400 words should include the description (language, size,
object, methodology) of a dataset. They should also specify whether the
analysis was conducted manually or computationally.

Abstracts and personal information (name, surname, affiliation, email
address) should be sent to either of the two convenors, Andrea Farina
(andrea.farina@kcl.ac.uk) or Mathilde Bru (mathilde.1.bru@kcl.ac.uk).
Deadline for the abstracts is 6th December 2024.
