Conference on Specific Language Impairment and Williams' Syndrome: Albuquerque, New Mexico, July 7-13, 1995

9411172这笔赠款将用于支持一个题为“特定语言障碍和威廉姆斯综合症：语言和认知的双重分离？”的工作会议，届时语言学家、神经语言学家和临床医生将齐聚一堂，进行为期一周的密集工作会议。这次会议将与美国语言学会的语言研究所联合举行，该研究所将于1995年7月在阿尔伯克基的新墨西哥大学举行。“特殊语言障碍和威廉斯综合症：语言和认知的双重分离？”工作会议将集中讨论两种截然不同的发育障碍--威廉斯综合症和特殊语言障碍--的理论含义和临床现实。它的目的是向更广泛的语言学家展示当前关于这些障碍的结果，并让这些语言学家接触到临床研究人员的第一手知识。

9411172 This grant will support a working conference entitled "Specific Language Impairment and Williams' Syndrome: A Double Dissociation of Language and Cognition?", that will bring together linguists, neurolinguists, and clinicians for an intensive week-long working session. The conference is to be held in conjunction with the Linguistic Institute of the Linguistic Society of America, which will be held at the University of New Mexico, Albuquerque, during July 1995. The Working Conference on "Specific Language Impairment and Williams' Syndrome: A Double Dissociation of Language and Cognition?", will focus on the theoretical implications and clinical realities of two sharply contrasting developmental disorders, Williams' Syndrome and Specific Language Impairment. It is designed to present current results on these disorders to a much wider audience of linguists, and to bring those linguists into contact with the first-hand knowledge of clinical researchers.
