[MORPHMET] Course on Morphological Integration, April 2015, Barcelona
Dear Colleagues, There ia a new edition of the course Integration and modularity with geometric morphometrics - 4th edition; April 7-10, 2015. INSTRUCTOR: Prof. Chris Klingenberg (University of Manchester, UK). The aim of the workshop is to provide participants with an overview of morphometric approaches to studying morphological integration and modularity. The concepts of integration and modularity will be introduced and discussed in different contexts (e.g. development, individual variation, evolutionary change). The theoretical basis and application of different methods for analyzing integration and modularity in geometric morphometric data will be presented. Lectures will be combined with hands-on demonstrations of the analyses. Participants are encouraged to bring their own morphometric data for analysis and discussion in the workshop. More information: http://www.transmittingscience.org/courses/gm/modularity-and-gm/ or wrtiting to cour...@transmittingscience.org These courses will be held in the Sabadell facilities of the Institut Català de Paleontologia (Barcelona, Spain) and are co-organized by Transmitting Science and the Institut Catalá de Paleontologia M. Crusafont. Place are limited and will be covered by strict registration order. Please feel free to distribute this information between your colleagues if you consider it appropriate.

[MORPHMET] sampling error references
Dear All, I am drafting a short follow up (kind of) of Cardini Elton's (2007, Zoomorphol.) paper on sampling error in geometric morphometrics. I am just focusing on means and variances. I've not found that many references on this type of issue. If anyone has suggestions (or pdfs), they're much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
