[Bonetools] 14th meeting of the Worked Bone Research Group, Johannesburg 30 August - 3 September 2021

[Justin Bradfield]

Dear list-members



The University of Johannesburg is delighted to announce the first call for
abstracts for the 14th meeting of the Worked Bone Research Group. This will
be the first time the meeting is hosted on African soil and the first time
in the Southern Hemisphere. We hope you will be able to join us next year
in making this a memorable meeting.



The abstract submission form can be found on the conference website (
www.uj.ac.za/wbrg) and should be submitted by 30 November to the Organising
Secretary, Dr Justin Bradfield (wbrg2021 at uj.ac.za).



The conference is generously funded by the Palaeontological Scientific
Trust (PAST <https://www.past.org.za/>), which allows us to waive all fees
for students and African scholars.



We are, of course, cognisant of the fluid situation in the world at the
moment and therefore we ask that, when you submit your abstract, you
indicate your preferred alternative option, should international travel not
be possible next year. South Africa’s borders are open and our Covid cases
are on a downward trajectory. We are monitoring the situation carefully,
here and abroad. The organising committee will make a final determination
in March next year, based on the global situation and on the responses in
the abstract submission form. We will keep you updated on the conference
website. Should the face-to-face meeting go ahead as planned be assured
that all Covid-19 protocols will be adhered to.



We look forward to welcoming you to the University of Johannesburg.



Regards



The Organising Committee
