2009 Conference and SVP
There are plans to combine the SVPCA with the SVP conference on 2009. The venue for that year will be Bristol. This was the subject of a special session at the 2007 meeting and other options were discussed, in particular the possibility of holding a joint meeting with EVAP in 2009. A ballot of delegates who have attended meetings over the past few years was taken, and the outcome was a substantial majority in favour of a joint meeting with the SVP.
Votes were cast as follows:
| Option 1 - SVP: | 75 |
| Option 2 - EAVP: | 54 |
| Neither: | 4 |
| Votes cast: | 133 |
The Symposium of Vertebrate Palaeontology and Comparative Anatomy
has been held in the UK or France every year since 1953. Details of previous years can be found here. This site was set up for the 2000 symposium in Portsmouth. I have collected material from previous years, going back as far as 1986. I'd like like to add more so that this site becomes an archive for previous years as well as giving information on future symposia.
