InterPhases

A Conference on Interfaces in Current Syntactic Theory
(organized by Dr. Kleanthes K. Grohmann, University of Cyprus)

18-20 May 2006, Cyprus
Castelliotissa Hall, Nicosia

InterPhases was part of the 6-Day Cyprus Syntaxfest, which included:

Edges in Syntax (Dr Phoevos Panagiotidis, Cyprus College, 15-17 May)
– the "sister conference" complementing the Cyprus Syntaxfest –

Prof. Noam Chomsky's Leventis Lecture (UCY, 17 May, 7.30pm) [LINKS]

Inaugural Ceremony for Prof. Noam Chomsky (UCY, 18 May, 8pm) [LINKS]

JUNE 3: Handouts of talks and posters are added as they come in. [PROGRAM 7/26 ]
[Go here for PHOTOS; write-ups in the media about Chomsky can be downloaded here (PDF).]

I believe I can speak for all presenters and participants when I say that the InterPhases conference was a complete and total success! Everything went smoothly, attendance was incredible, the quality of talks and posters was high, and somehow we all survived!

For invaluable administrative and organizational support I would like to thank: Michael Beys, Marina Iakovou, Helen Warnat, too many UCY English undergraduate students to list individually, and especially Thekla Constantinou and Aljona Shelkovaya-Vasiliou.

Most of all, however, I would like to thank all presenters for making InterPhases a top-notch conference, and all other members of the audience for traveling all the way to Cyprus and participating so wonderfully (socially and intellectually).
