abstract

  • The vigor and relevance of contemporary paleontological research were demonstrated at the 4th International Palaeontological Congress (IPC4), held in e city of Mendoza, Argentina from September 28 to October 3, 2014. The research presented at IPC4 was highly diverse in its topical, organismal, geographical, and temporal coverage. The workshops, symposia, short courses, and field trips were similarly varied, along with the conference attendees who hailed from 50 different countries and represented many different stages of their paleontological careers, from students to emeritus professors. IPC4 provided many professionals the first opportunity to visit Argentina, South America and interact with experts from different fields.
