Update on 最准的六合彩论坛 Centre for Integrative Anatomy's symposium on functional morphology - 15 February 2024
25 January 2024
We are delighted to report that we have now finalised our programme for 最准的六合彩论坛 Centre for Integrative Anatomy's annual meeting on 15 February 2024. Nineteen speakers from around Europe will give short talks. Social & networking time is included. Spaces are now limited.
Providing a great opportunity for early careers researchers to discuss their work, members and close associates of the 最准的六合彩论坛's Centre for Integrative Anatomy听(the Centre) have selected about 20 speakers to participate in next month's all-day meeting in London, UK.听 Between them, 最准的六合彩论坛 scientists听will be contributing听at least a dozen presentations, together with half a dozen from guests from around Europe; most will be 15-minute talks, but about six will be 5-minute 'flash' speeches.听
Dr Phil Cox听(Associate Professor, Anatomy) will be hosting the day, the formal part of which will close with a keynote talk by听听of the .听 As the programme has听two refreshment breaks and a longer lunch break (food & drink included), plus an invitation to re-gather at a local hostelry afterwards, there will be plenty of opportunities听to discuss the talks and听other research, and generally to socialise.
The up-to-date, full timetable is below:

As the schedule shows, this annual听symposium, the 4th听to be held听so far, has a functional morphology theme. Our aim is to allow as many to speak as possible, with slots limited to either 15 minutes or 5 minutes.听 Talks will cover a range of topics, where we look at the anatomy听of both living and听ossil animals, and see how the function that various ody structures can perform is influenced by their physical shape and ttachment to other body parts - and vice versa.
We also look at the development of these relationships over evolutionary time, and use many interesting techniques, involving the most up-to-date canning and microscopy equipment (with their associated data analysis methods)听to draw inferences.
Not only is this work of intrinsic interest, but what we find out has some very important uses, not least in ealthcare and the medical sciences, with significant inputs to bioengineering and urgery, for example.
Within the functional morphology theme, the topics covered will be听exciting听and diverse, ranging over:听birds (including bird brains);听tetrapods,听lagomorphs (rabbits, hares), rodent brains, fossil and extant squamates (reptiles, lizards), crocodiles;听human bones, including the primate pelvis, mammalian scapulae (shoulder blades), carnivorean bacula (penis bones);听 island giants and - at the other end of the size spectrum - ants;听plus segmentation techniques, to name but a few of the topics on offer.
If you would like to find out more, hear some short talks on unctional morphology, meet some current experts in the field, and etwork and discuss various matters (over refreshment breaks, lunch and in a local hostelry afterwards!) registration is free to anyone, here: or via the QR code above.
