Thank you to everyone who attended the 2023 Annual Conference, hosted by the University of Southampton and the National Oceanography Centre from 15th to 17th November 2023!

Lyell Meetings
TMS collaborates, via the Joint Council for Palaeontology, with the Geological Society of London, the Palaeontological Association and the Palaeontographical Society to organise the annual Lyell Meetings. The themes of these are different each year, but the overall concept is to highlight the role of palaeontology in the earth sciences.

Group Meetings
The constituent specialist groups of TMS also organise their own meetings, which are held regularly throughout the year. For details on these, you should refer to the group’s page: Foraminifera – Ostracod – Palynology – Nannofossil – Silicofossil.

Code of conduct
All TMS event participants are asked to read and agree to our code of conduct as a requirement for attending.

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.
