Do you work in the field of Paleontology?  Have you:

  *   Been working on something new?
  *   Developed an interesting new technique in the field of fossil preparation, field work, collections management or mitigation paleontology?
  *   Made an interesting set-up for working from home?
  *   Developed new skills while working from home like data processing or cleaning?
  *   Worked with or trained volunteers over the pandemic?
Then talk to your community about it for 15 minutes this November at the Society of Vertebrate Paleontology 2021 Virtual Meeting, Preparators Session!
Abstract submission is currently open.  Abstracts are due TOMORROW, May, 6th and may be submitted here: https://svp2021.abstractcentral.com/<https://nam02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fsvp2021.abstractcentral.com%2F&data=04%7C01%7CMillerMT2%40si.edu%7C81078e611f8e430b300408d8fb8d4b0b%7C989b5e2a14e44efe93b78cdd5fc5d11c%7C0%7C0%7C637535931558997523%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=0gdzehGLSx3cwFBbH%2F%2Bj2vChQsu7VB%2FN3mjhE7JYEk8%3D&reserved=0>

The Preparators Session welcomes abstracts that cover a broad range of topics, including fieldwork, labwork, curation projects, collections care, data management, exhibition development, and professional development training for preparators, technicians, and collection workers. Talks in this session address the physical care and long-term stewardship of vertebrate fossils and their associated data with special attention to the documentation of materials, methods, techniques, tools, health and safety considerations, as well as ethics.
In recognition of the multiple roles many members of the society encompass, SVP is now welcoming individuals to submit up to two first authored abstracts divided amongst the Preparators' Session, the Education and Outreach Poster Session, and a Regular/Symposium Session. Authors who wish to contribute to the Preparators' and Regular/Symposium sessions will no longer have to choose between them!
Talks and posters recycled from other meetings are welcome!  We would love to hear you report on additional data you have collected between meetings.
Our community looks forward to hearing your talk or reading your poster in November!
Regards;
The Preparators Session Advocacy Group, Preparators Committee
