The Annual Address is one of the flagship events of the Annual Meeting of the Palaeontological Association and, unlike other aspects of the meeting, is open to non-delegates. Notable palaeontologists are invited to give the Annual Address, with speakers generally holding mid-level research positions. Speakers are chosen by the Association’s Council. Speakers are invited to talk about a subject of their choice from their own research, noting that the talk is open to interested members of the public as well as career palaeontologists.
(Addresses indicated with an asterisk were subsequently published by the Association)
Date | Speaker | Title |
|---|---|---|
12 March 1958 | O. M. B. Bulman | The sequence of graptolite faunas* |
11 March 1959 | G. Regnell |
During Palaeontological Association meetings, attendees should respect common sense rules for behaviour in public electronic communications and respect the intellectual property of presenters (please see the Code of Conduct for more information). We ask attendees not to photograph a poster or record a talk without the author’s express permission. While the default assumption is to allow open discussion of presentations on social media, attendees are expected to respect any request by an author to not disseminate the contents of their talk or poster. As such we have developed a range of visual signs that authors can use to allow or deny permission to other delegates for a range of common activities.
The Yorkshire Fossil Festival (http://www.yorkshirefossilfestival.co.uk) returns to Scarborough’s Rotunda Museum with a roar on 16th–18th September 2016! See a baby T-rex roam the town centre, create sea monsters, go rock pooling, get crafty at workshops, watch dinosaur shows and learn about all things geology.
