*Abstracts will be made available online prior to the Colloquium and should be constructed in a way that makes it easy for a non-specialist audience to gain a quick understanding of the author’s research or project. In other words, please provide enough information so that someone who is being introduced to your topic for the first time can understand of what you will be covering.

**Citations of secondary literature and a bibliography are not necessary for the abstract.
