IGCP 652 aims to build up a high-resolution and accurate Paleozoic time scale to understand tectonic, climatic and biologic evolutions. In order to promote exchanges and attract more researchers in Paleozoic research, we are pleased to announce that the IGCP-652 meeting 2019 will be hosted in the Lanzhou university, China, on 23 - 27 August 2019. Lanzhou University, by the Yellow River, has a long history of excellence in chemistry, physics, biology, mathematics and Earth sciences, and has been ranking as one of the top 30 among over 1,500 universities across China.
