Connectionists: POSTPONED - Women in Memory Research - Workshop - March 7-9, 2022

[Vinita Samarasinghe]

Dear all,

due to the increasing incidence numbers here in Germany we have decided 
to postpone the WiMR workshop. It will instead be held in summer 2023 in 
conjunction with the conference GEM 2023. Call for papers and conference 
and workshop details will be posted here, and on our website 
https://for2812.rub.de, once they have been finalized.

We look forward to greeting you here in Bochum, Germany in 2023 and 
apologize for any inconvenience caused.

Kind regards,

Vinita Samarasinghe M.Sc., M.A.
