Welcome to the 12th International Cretaceous Symposium, which will take place from 31 August to 5 September 2025 in Hannover, Germany. This prestigious event, jointly organized by Leibniz Universität Hannover (LUH) and the Federal Institute for Geosciences and Natural Resources (BGR), will provide a unique platform for leading scientists and professionals to present and discuss the latest findings and developments in the field of Cretaceous research.

The symposium will be held in the historic Welfenschloss, the main building of the LUH, and offers space for up to 350 participants. In addition to exciting lectures and poster presentations in two large lecture halls, there will also be a poster exhibition in the atrium of the main building. In addition, field excursions will be offered to important Cretaceous sites in the vicinity of Hannover, which is known as the “home of the German Cretaceous”.

We cordially invite all interested researchers, professionals and students to join us at this inspiring event and explore together the latest advances in Cretaceous research. Take the opportunity to exchange ideas with colleagues, make new contacts and become part of a dynamic and international scientific community.

The Micropalaeontological Society

Towards the advancement of the education of the public in the study of Micropalaeontology

The Micropalaeontological Society (TMS) exists “to advance the education of the public in the study of Micropalaeontology” and is operated “exclusively for scientific and educational purposes and not for profit”. It was initiated as The British Micropalaeontological Group (BMG) in 1970, following a proposal by Professor Leslie Moore of the University of Sheffield and several colleagues who wished to organise a group of palaeontologists with a mutual interest in the micropalaeontological study of British type sections and the provision of a forum for the communication of their results.
