2017 International Workshop on Konservat-Lagerstätten
Palaeobiology, taphonomy, geochemistry and sedimentary context of soft-bodied fossils
This workshop brought together over 60 scientists from across Europe, Asia and North America based on our shared interests in Konservat-Lagerst盲tten. The workshop took place in the Main Quad at UCC, Cork, on 15th and 16th July 2017. There were dedicated workshops on electron microscopy, micro-CT, X-ray absorption spectroscopy, experimental design, statistical analysis of taphonomic data, and palaeoproteomics. The workshop featured a wonderful line-up of invited speakers, including Prof. Derek Briggs (Yale 福利1000在线), Dr Mike Buckley (福利1000在线 of Manchester), Prof. Phil Donoghue (福利1000在线 of Bristol), Prof. Bob Gaines (Pomona College, California), Prof. Baoyu Jiang (Nanjing 福利1000在线), Dr Stuart Kearns (福利1000在线 of Bristol), Prof. Johan Lindgren (Lund 福利1000在线), Prof. Maria McNamara (福利1000在线 College Cork), Dr Duncan Murdock (福利1000在线 of Oxford), Dr Patrick Orr (福利1000在线 College Dublin), Dr Imran Rahman (福利1000在线 of Oxford), Dr Rob Sansom (福利1000在线 of Manchester), and Prof. Roy Wogelius (福利1000在线 of Manchester).
Thanks to all the invited speakers and delegates of the Konservat-Lagerst盲tten workshop. It was a hugely enjoyable meeting and was truly unique as a dedicated extended opportunity for workers on fossil soft tissues and Lagerst盲tten to come together to share research results, ideas and best practices. The organising committee hope that all delegates enjoyed their time in Cork and benefited from the wonderful scientific discussions. We wish you all the very best of luck in your scientific endeavours and for continued success in the study of Konservat-Lagerst盲tten.
