The 2015 London Meeting of the Experimental Psychology Society will take place on 8-9 January 2015. One of the highlights of the London Meeting is the Bartlett Prize Lecture. This year's Lecture, which is the Forty-Third Bartlett Prize Lecture, will be given by Professor Lorraine K. Tyler. The Lecture's title is From perception to conception: How the brain processes meaningful concepts. The Lectureship is endowed by a trust fund in the name of Sir Frederic Bartlett, who was the first Professor of Experimental Psychology at Cambridge, and who headed the Department of Psychology (then the Department of Experimental Psychology) from 1931 to 1952.
The Lecture will be accompanied by a Symposium, Theoretical and experimental approaches to conceptual semantics. This Symposium is being organised by Dr Barry Devereux and Dr Alex Clarke.
A further Symposium, Processing spoken language in challenging conditions, is being organised by Dr Patti Adank of UCL.
More information about the London Meeting is available on the EPS website.
