18th Annual Evolutionary Psychology Preconference at SPSP

Dear colleagues,

We are excited to announce the 18th Annual Evolutionary Psychology Preconference at SPSP, which will take place Thursday, February 27th, 2020 in New Orleans, Louisiana.

More information can be found at our webpage, and you can register now on SPSP’s website.

We have an incredible lineup of speakers, including:

• Paul Bloom (Yale University)
• Michael Bang Petersen (Aarhus University)
• Regina Lapate (UC Berkeley)
• Sam Mehr (Harvard University)
• Alex Shaw (University of Chicago)
• Iris Holzleinter (University of Glasgow)

On the heels of last year’s successful break-out lunch session, we’re again offering attendees a chance to gain practical insight from leading minds. Douglas Kenrick & Steven Neuberg (Arizona State University) will lead this year’s session: “Marketing Yourself as an (Evolutionary) Social Psychologist.” (This session is free for registered attendees.)

We will also feature a poster session and a data blitz session. We encourage both graduate students and faculty to submit their work for presentation. Abstract submissions will open on 10/1 and will close on 11/22 at 11:59pm. Presenters will be notified in early December, well before the early-bird registration deadline. Presenters can submit via our webpage.

Feel free to reach out with questions. We look forward to seeing you in New Orleans!
