Annual Meetings by Year

The list below contains an overview of all previous PIAC Meetings by ordinal number, year and location. All descriptive materials like lists of participants, reports of meetings, schedules, programmes etc. are linked to the year. If a volume of Proceedings was produced for that year, the word (Proceedings) provides the link to the Proceedings (or collection of abstracts, in some cases) of that year.

Based on administrative information of earlier meetings containing lists of participants, programmes etc. only, it is close to impossible to determine whether the person stated in the materials really participated. In addition, reports of meetings can be occasionally selective rather than comprehensive. Information of these old documents is thus presented in good faith. Sometimes though, contributors in Proceedings volumes fail to appear on the official lists of participants but could be confirmed by witnesses to have participated. Only in recent years (approx. after the year 2008) the data presented here begin to reflect the actual participation situation at the PIAC Meetings.

If there is neither a link behind a year nor any mention of a Proceedings volume, then this means that there is currently no information available for the PIAC Meeting of that year, at least in the hands of the editor. PIAC members are kindly invited to submit scans of their own materials.

Abstracts behind links in programms, lists of participants etc. are only minimally edited. No attempt whatsoever was made to unify transcriptions and transliterations, reflecting the situation that the booklets of abstracts, if available, were hastily compiled at the very last minute of preparation.
