The Crosslinguistic Perspectives on Processing and Learning Workshop (X-PPL) brings together the growing community of researchers working to expand the diversity of languages in the scope of psycholinguistics and the neuroscience of language. The research of this community is driven by the recognition that structural/typological and socio-cultural diversity provides important and unique opportunities to see language processing and language learning mechanisms at work and to gain deeper insights into the balance between universal and varying dimensions of these mechanisms. The bulk of processing and acquisition research represents only a small fraction of linguistic diversity, which risks biasing both our theories and our research questions.
The Crosslinguistic Perspectives on Processing and Learning Workshop (X-PPL) aims to overcome this bias and to fill a gap in the conference landscape by providing a platform for cross-linguistic research on language processing and learning.
X-PPL 2025 will be hosted by the Institute for the Interdisciplinary Study of Language Evolution at the University of Zurich, and will take place on September 1 and 2, 2025.
University of Zurich, Affolternstrasse 56, 8050 Zurich
There is no dedicated conference hotel for X-PPL because the event will take place at the University of Zurich’s Oerlikon campus in the building AFL (Affolternstrasse 56, 8050 Zurich).
The venue is easy to reach by public transport. We advise you to choose an accommodation that allows you to access the AFL building from the nearby train station (Bahnhof Oerlikon), tram stop (Bahnhof Oerlikon Ost, tram number 10/14 or Bahnhof Oerlikon, tram number 11), or bus stop (Bahnhof Oerlikon Nord, bus number 80). The train station, tram, and bus stops can be easily reached from Zurich main station (Zürich HB) and other train stations within Zurich.
If you have any questions, please contact us.
