Dear colleagues,
The emergence of new applications and technologies opens a wide range of possibilities regarding new forms of communication in the scientific world. Aware of this, we are glad to present the 1st Palaeontological Virtual Congress, which main goal is to spread the most recent scientific advances in palaeontology worldwide in a fast, easy and economical way.
This online congress is pioneer in palaeontology, offering an exclusively virtual-developed environment to researchers all around the globe. Oral communications and posters about any palaeontological field will be presented through an online platform created ad hoc. The simplicity of this new format allows for low-cost registration fees and saving travel and maintenance expenses. Consequently, this initiative aims to give international projection to the palaeontological research carried out by groups with limited economic resources and, therefore, promoting the participation of palaeontologists from developing countries.
More detailed information regarding important dates and deadlines, registration, fees, workshops proposals and technical/logistics issues can be found in the attached “First circular document”, as well as at the congress web page (http://palaeovc.uv.es/) and social media accounts (Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/
In order to achieve the maximum reach and greater coverage, we encourage you to share this circular among your colleagues and students and promote this initiative through social media.
Yours sincerely,
