Lyell Meeting 2010

Comparing the geological and fossil records: implications for biodiversity studies

Organised by: Main Geological Society events
  The Palaeontological Society
  Palaeontographical Society
Date: 30 June 2010
Event Type: Conference
Venue: Flett Lecture Theatre, Natural History Museum
 
The rock and fossil records must to some extent be correlated.  This symposium asks how strong this linkage is, explores possible causal factors, and examines the consequences for our estimates of biodiversity patterns through time.

Keynote speakers include:
Anthony Barnosky, University of California, Berkeley
Michael Benton, University of Bristol
James Crampton, GNS Science, Lower Hut
Shanan Peters, University of Madison-Wisconsin

The Lyell Meeting 2010 forms part of the International Palaeontological Congress 3 (IPC3), and is open to all congress delegates.



Registration

Registration for IPC3 is now open and those wishing to attend the whole Congress must register. For those who just want to come to the Lyell Meeting and no other events, then there will be no registration fee - so long as you are a member of one of the supporting societies (The Geological Society, The Palaeontological Association or the Palaeontographical Society). You must still, however, register with IPC3 that you will be attending the Lyell Meeting.  To register for the Lyell Meeting, please click on the following link - Lyell Meeting 2010 registration
