BANDIT sessions at AAPA 2011

Presumably, you will be spending some time checking out the program at AAPA/HBA/Paleoanth/Paleopath/etc. (Maybe not, I don't know your life.) I encourage the BANDITs to let me know about your sessions, especially if it's a session you organized or were invited to participate in. Let's support each other! I will continue to update and repost this list as I hear from more of you! (Note: I go on maternity leave soon so get in touch ASAP if you want me to highlight your session on the blog!)

  1. No one is more surprised than I am, but I'll be there too. I am presenting an invited poster in the poster symposium "Ears, Eyes, and Noses: Revisiting the Evolution and Ecology of the Primate Special Senses" on Saturday morning, 8-12 in the Duluth Room. The title is "Chemical communication without a vomeronasal organ: parallel evolution in primates and birds?"
