The WAIL 27 Organizing Committee is extremely saddened by the events of the fires that are currently burning in Southern California. We would like to extend a grace period to anyone from the Greater Los Angeles region who has been impacted by the fires. You may email us (wailconference.ucsb@gmail.com) a placeholder title by January 15th to express your intent to submit an abstract, and we will contact you personally. Again, we extend our deepest sympathies to those affected and our family, friends, and neighbors in the region.
