<p>Founding the Society of Sinophone Studies<br />
May 4, 2019</p>
<p>Following the successful “Sinophone Studies” conference held in April of this year at the University of California, Los Angeles, we announce the formation of the Society of Sinophone Studies to promote the study of Sinitic-language communities and cultures around the world. The Society seeks to provide support for scholars with an interest in Sinophone studies and welcomes any regional, disciplinary, and topical expertise. More details about the Society will follow; please contact Howard Chiang (<a href="mailto:hhchiang@ucdavis.edu">hhchiang@ucdavis.edu</a>) for preliminary inquiries.</p>
