The TMS is delighted to announce that the next Foraminifera and Nannofossil spring meeting will be hosted by the Laboratory CNRS UMR 6112 LPG-BIAF Recent and Fossil Bio-Indicators, at Angers University, France. The program will encompass oral presentations on selected micropaleontological topics, posters sessions, a conference dinner, a field excursion, and a thematic workshop day. The theme for this year’s event is “From life strategies to the geological record”. We invite contributions ranging from studies focusing on life strategies, modern-day processes as well as paleontological application of foraminifera and nannofossils. These may include studies on biology, ecology, morphometrics, evolution, genetics- and morphology- based taxonomy, biomineralization, carbonate geochemistry,
biostratigraphy, paleoceanography and paleoclimatological applications of carbonate microfossils. Thematic sessions on the first two days of the meeting will include oral and poster contributions, and invited talks. The third day will be dedicated to a field trip and
the fourth day will host several workshops.
