Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to announce this year's Early Career Scientist Symposium, to be held Saturday, March 16, 2013 at East Hall, Room 1324, on the campus of the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor.  The theme this year is "Macroevolution: Fossils, Frameworks, and Phylogenies."

Our outstanding lineup of up-and-coming field leaders will address cutting-edge approaches for revealing large-scale patterns and processes of evolution, using methods and data from fields as diverse as paleobiology, genomics, systematics, mathematical modeling, ecology and developmental biology. We are pleased to announce our keynote speakers: Dr. Douglas H. Erwin, Santa Fe Institute and Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History and Dr. Robert E. Ricklefs, University of Missouri at St. Louis.
