The TMS-CFFR Foraminifera Spring Meeting 2025 will be hosted in Gothenburg, Sweden, by the University of Gothenburg, on June 10-13.

The title of the meeting will be “Foraminifera as a marine magnifying glass: tiny details, big insights from fossils to molecules” to reflect the various aspects of foraminiferal research ranging from paleo-approaches in climate and ocean research to experimental, AI-based and marine environmental studies, ecology, taxonomy, biogeography, phylogeny, as well as fossil applications in industry, forensics and archaeology. The conference will include a one-day field trip to the newly appointed UNESCO Global Geopark at Kinnekulle with its well-known Cambrian alum shales and Ordovician limestones (June 10), and two full days of scientific sessions filled with keynote, oral and poster presentations at the Wallenberg Centre (June 11 & 12). The TMS-CFFR Foraminifera Spring Meeting 2025 will be held in full hybrid mode for scientific sessions (June 11-12) to facilitate participation from overseas.

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.
