 The control of size and shape in skeletal morphogenesis
This workshop, organized by Michael Akam (University of Cambridge) brought together developmental biologists, paleontologists, morphometricians, and quantitative geneticists to discuss how size and shape are determined by cellular and developmental processes, and how they can be analyzed to shed further light on those processes.
Interestingly, the failure to form fore- and hindlimbs has two different causes in pythons: changes in Hox gene expression (relative to vertebrates that have legs, linked to the extension of the thoracic region in snakes) are responsible for the absence of forelimbs, whereas the hindlimb buds are initiated normally, but fail to develop into legs.
David Stern (Cambridge University) reviewed what is known of the mechanisms that regulate the growth of organs in insects, and thus establish their shape (relative sizes of organs) and its dependence on overall size (allometry).

 Natural Catastrophes During Bronze Age Civilisations: Proceedings
The Second SIS (Society for Interdisciplinary Studies) Cambridge Conference, entitled "Natural Catastrophes during Bronze Age Civilisations: Archaeological, Geological, Astronomical and Cultural Perspectives", was held at Fitzwilliam College between 11-13 July 1997.
Hence, when planning the Second Cambridge Conference, it was decided to narrow the title to include only Bronze Age catastrophes and, apart from papers concerned with present-day scientific findings which could throw light on past events, to exclude from the formal programme topics which were not clearly related to the subject of the conference.
So, a broad view was taken by the organisers of the Second Cambridge Conference as to the period covered by the term Bronze Age and, in consequence, it should be understood that it was concerned with events between about 3500 BC and 500 BC.
