The Centre for Macroevolution and Macroecology has just started up at the Australian National University. It's an interdisciplinary centre comprising biologists, palaeontologists, philosophers, archaeologists and geologists, researching issues in Geochemistry, Palaeontology, Archaeology, Genomes, Phylogenies, and Biodiversity. Go check them out. Not much on the site yet (they're only having the opening party tonight) but there will be.
Looks fun: but their logo is a brazen attempt to lure PZ down under. I guess you're hoping to be invited to give a talk in the BoZo seminar room.

I heard a rumour that Paul Griffiths is moving to Sydney. Is this true or is he moving to Canberra?
