After the success of the 6th Annual Meeting in Valencia, we are pleased to announce that The 7th Annual Meeting of the Society will take place on 28-29th April 2025 at the University of Zurich, Switzerland. We look forward to hosting you there for another stimulating gathering

Zurich is a fascinating destination, with a long history of over 7000 years of continuous settlement, abundant culture and some unique local traditions. We’ll be able to enjoy one of these together: the burning of the giant snowman “Böögg” to symbolise the end of winter and to divine the quality of the forthcoming summer.

Zurich Tourism provides excellent travel and accommodation information

Registration and Abstract submission are now open! Abstracts can be submitted until February 28, 2025.

Discounted registration is available for researchers working in countries in receipt of OECD Development Aid. SCSC Members are eligible for a significantly reduced rate - it makes sense to join the society!

We welcome submissions for oral and poster presentations from researchers whose work touches upon the reciprocal relationships between cognition and culture - including, but not limited to language and linguistics, music, visual arts, architecture and environment.

We are pleased to announce the distinguished keynote speakers who will contribute to making this a great meeting:

• Professor Pascal Gygax, Université de Fribourg (FR, Switzerland)

• Professor Amber Gayle Thalmayer, Universität Zürich (ZH, Switzerland)

• Professor Aniruddh D. Patel from Tufts University (MA, USA)

• Professor Sarah Ebling from Universität Zürich (ZH, Switzerland).
