Our group will be attending to participate in a symposium being organized by John Maisey (AMNH): Chondrichthyan skeletal biology and evolution
Moya Meredith Smith’s career has spanned over five decades, focusing on the evolution of dentitions and vertebrate hard tissues, in both living and fossil animals. Her research incorporates both developmental biology and palaeontology, and during her long career she has produced seminal works in both fields.
Monique Welten, now a Marie Curie Research Fellow at the University of Bristol (http://www.bristol.ac.uk/earthsciences/) will be presenting a Nature Live event on the evolution of sawshark and sawfish dentitions, "See Saw": http://www.nhm.ac.uk/visit-us/whats-on/events/programs/naturelive/sea_sa...
We will be talking about the evolution of shark dentitions at Science Uncovered (http://www.nhm.ac.uk/visit-us/whats-on/after-hours/science-uncovered/).
This is a museum-wide event, "Our annual festival of science, part of European Researchers' Night, is fun, free and gets better every year"!
