13th Generative Approaches to Language Acquisition (GALA 13)

This biannual conference brings together researchers from across Europe and overseas with the aim of communicating results from their research. It also provides a forum for discussion of recent, high-quality research on first and second language acquisition, bi/multilingual acquisition, heritage language acquisition, language pathology and language impairment, the acquisition of sign language and brain imaging research for acquisition and pathology. Language acquisition studies are central to building our understanding of human language and how it develops in the brain. The field has witnessed a continuous growth during the past three decades.
