*PhDs in Logic V, Munich, April 8-10, 2013* SECOND CALL FOR ABSTRACTS The fifth edition of PhDs in Logic will take place at the Munich Center for Mathematical Philosophy. PhDs in Logic is a graduate conference organized by local graduate students. Its aim is to bring together graduate students and researchers as well as to foster contact between graduate students. Earlier editions of the event took place in Ghent (2009, 2012), Tilburg (2010), and Brussels (2011). Following the previous meetings, the academic pattern is formed by two main parts: - tutorials given by researchers in logic - 20 to 25 min presentations by graduate students on topics pertaining to their research Besides that there will be opportunities for informal gatherings including a conference dinner The invited tutorial speakers for this year's edition are Mai Gehrke (Université Paris Diderot), Thomas Streicher (TU Darmstadt), Olivier Roy (LMU Munich), and Ole Hjortland (LMU Munich). All speakers have provisionally accepted our invitation. PhD students interested in presenting a talk should send a 500-1000 word abstract to phdsinlogic@gmail.com by January 15th, 2013.
