<div style="margin:0px"><b class="x_ContentPasted0">Abstract: </b><span class="x_ContentPasted0" style="margin:0px"></span>The diversification of abundant, complex animals is preserved in soft-bodied fossils belonging to the Ediacara Biota – the oldest macroscopic
communities in the geologic record. While the discovery of such fossils represents a remarkable step in our understanding of metazoan evolution, resolving many longstanding queries (e.g., Darwin’s Dilemma), our view of the Ediacaran is limited by the relatively
few exceptional deposits containing abundant and well-constrained examples of these unique taxa. Further, the relationships between these ancient complex life forms and modern animals are often enigmatic. In this talk I will highlight several new advances
in our understanding of the Ediacara Biota – from an extinction event to new localities and species – that help to contextualize these exceptional fossils within the broader picture of the emergence of animal life on this planet.<span class="x_ContentPasted0" style="margin:0px"></span></div>
