ANNC: ICCEES congress deadline extended
Date
Body
Dear Nabokovians,

Just to let you know in case you'd be interested and have missed the news:
the deadline for proposals has been extended till June 15th (
http://src-h.slav.hokudai.ac.jp/iccees2015/). I am planning to submit an
individual paper proposal but will be happy to join a panel in case you
need a participant from Bulgaria.

All the best,
Kate
