Synthesis Workshops

Create impact for your science ideasPS workshop

With a fully funded

Paleosynthesis Workshop

Interdisciplinary workshops are among the best measures to develop a scientific theme. We offer fully funded workshops for up to 14 peers across the globe.

If you have an idea for a paleontology workshop, please apply! Next call will be in April 2024

Current workshops

Biotic Interactions in Deep Time

“Biotic interaction plays an important role in the evolution of groups through time.” 

Aleksandra Skawina (University of Warsaw, Poland) and Devapriya Chattopadhyay (IISER, Pune, India); fully funded


IRAL_workshop-icon_RZ_cmykIntegrated Record of Ancient Life

Big Data framework for the next generation of data infrastructure in paleontological research……”Compilations of fossil data are fundamental to modern paleontology”

Emma Dunne* and Adam Kocsis, FAU, fully funded; *ED applied while in Birmingham


Trilobite Biogeography and Ecology

TRiBE….”The geographic distribution of animals impacts a range of macroevolutionary trends” 

Harriet B. Drage (University of Lausanne, Switzerland) and Stephen Pates, (University of Cambridge, UK); fully funded


Past workshops

BioDeepTime

“In a rapidly changing world, there is an urgent need to understand how communities respond to environmental perturbations of varying magnitudes and rates.” 

Pincelli Hull (Yale, USA), Marina Costa Rillo (Univ. Oldenburg), Seth Finnegan (UC Berkeley, USA); fully funded


Diversity Dynamics and Crisis in Paleontology

The workshop is based on the idea that Palaeontology is unique among scientific disciplines in that it thrives on the exchange of information across diverse communities, both academic and non-academic.

Nussaibah Raja-Schoob (FAU, Germany) and Emma Dunne (Univ. Birmingham, UK; now FAU); funding support


PaleoNovelty

Our proposed working group will advance core goals of conservation paleobiology … Paleontological research will be critical to understand the extent and drivers of eco-logical novelty, placing modern patterns in a deep-time context.

Tim Staples and John Pandolfi, University of Queensland; implemented into PaleoSynthesis

PaleoG – Big Questions Germany

“…geological sciences including paleontology, have been barely visible in ESS … (but) Paleontology with its strong ties to both, life- and geosciences, is thus a key science in ESS
