Why these long abstracts?
Instead of a poor and sloppy abstract of an anonymous abstract booklet, we would like to value and boost our research. For this reason, each abstract will be revised and, once ready, will be gathered in an electronic publication, "Fossilia" (ISBN:9791220034081), open access e fully citable.

The oral presentations will be organized during the day (10-18). Talks should stay within 15 minutes (12+3 for questions). In case of a surplus of talk applications, the Scientific Committee could eventually convert few standard talks into lightning talks (5 min + 2 for questions) in order to respect the scheduled slots. All talks should be prepared as Microsoft PowerPoint document (.ppt o.pptx) or .pdf.
