The updated scientific program is now available.

Opening session and plenary lectures:

Two plenary sessions will be organized on Tuesday 19 July at 18:00 and three on Friday 22 July at 18:00. The program is not finalized yet, but the speakers’ presentations will be as follows:

	F. Moutou (ANSES Maisons-Alfort): About mammals and diseases
	J. Michaux (CBGP Montpellier): Phylogeny and Conservation genetics in Europe
	S. Renaud (LBBE Lyon): Evo-Devo and morphometrics: an insight into the evolutionary processes
	F. Bonhomme (ISEM Montpellier): Of mice and men: what’s new since the Neolithic?
	J.F. Merritt (INHS, University of Illinois): Life in the cold: winter survival strategies of small mammals
	R. Nathan (The Hebrew University of Jerusalem): Bat Movement Ecology

22 Thematic sessions (including both oral and poster communications) of various duration (from a half day to two days) will be scheduled by the organisers
