The Seventh Annual Conference of the Association for Anthropology and Gerontology will be held at the University of Oklahoma-Norman from June 5 - 7, 2009. This year’s theme broadly focuses on Aging and the Indigenous People of North America. Any topic is welcome; examples include aging and health issues, the revitalization of culture and language, and overviews of the field as a whole. The keynote speaker is Dr. J. Neil Henderson from the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center.
The conference is a small-scale meeting (20-25 participants) emphasizing the close critique of works-in-progress. It features a mentoring component for students and junior researchers, who are paired with senior researchers who offer technical assistance concerning research proposals or manuscripts. Papers from the conference will be considered for publication either individually or as a special issue of the Journal of Cross-Cultural Gerontology. Those who wish to present a paper are invited to submit a one-page abstract as an e-mail attachment by February 15, 2008 to Dr. Lori L. Jervis, University of Oklahoma, lori.jervis@ou.edu.
