The meeting is open to paleontologist, ornithologist and anyone with a general interest in bird evolution. Birds are excellent models for addressing a wide range of scientific questions, hence we encourage students and professionals of relevant research areas—functional morphology, evo-devo, paleontology, and molecular systematics, among others—to take part in the scientific sessions of the 10th SAPE Meeting. A scientific committee of renowned researchers will review the abstracts to ensure the quality of the scientific sessions.
