The conference will be held at the Birmingham and Midlands Institute in central Birmingham, hosted by the University of Central England, from 29-31 March 2007. Plenary speakers include Robert Crawford and Jenny Uglow.

Papers may address topics in the interactions of literature and science in any period and any languages. Presenters need not be based in UK institutions.

We also invite panel proposals for three papers of 20 minutes or four papers of 15 minutes; members of the panel should be drawn from more than one institution.

Please send abstracts in the body of messages; do not use attachments. Alternatively, abstracts and proposals may be posted to Dr Stuart Robertson, School of English, University of Central

Decisions will be announced by the end of December 2006. Information on the conference will be made available at www.arts.gla.ac.uk/bsls.
