Semantics* (G.I.R.L.S.14@LUND) welcomes submissions from researchers in
philosophy, cognitive science, economics & linguistics, using agent based
models with bounded rationality, models of evolutionary dynamics, and other
naturalistic approaches. The primary conference aims are to foster
cooperation between these groups and help establish common ground.

G.I.R.L.S. 14@LUND will be themed around *Evolution and Cooperation*.
