The topics of the APC3 will include all aspects of palaeontology. Below are preliminary topics of scientific sessions suggested by the APC3. We welcome researchers and relevant working groups from Asia and around the world to choose and convene a session. At this stage, the selected topics can be modified for the benefit of the participants as well as the advancement of palaeontology. Details of all scientific sessions will be finalized and announced in the next circular:
