Rimouski and Miguasha
Rimouski, with its breathtaking natural beauty and setting along the St. Lawrence River, serves as an ideal backdrop for this international gathering of lower vertebrate paleontologists. We believe that your participation will greatly enhance the symposium’s quality and impact.

We are committed to ensuring that your experience at the symposium is both intellectually stimulating and enjoyable. Our organizing committee is working diligently to arrange transportation and social events, that will allow you to make the most of your time in Rimouski and Miguasha.
Registration and abstract submission must be done through this website https://17iselv.uqar.ca/, where you can find detailed information concerning registration fees, payments, abstracts formatting, accommodation, etc.
As announced in the 1st circular, we would like to stress that the conference will be developed as an in-person meeting, so we encourage you to participate in this format. Nevertheless, the organizing committee has decided to offer also a virtual version, where participants who choose that option, will be able to follow the event; however online communications will not be possible for non-in-person attendees.
