The annual meetings of the Society are the platform on which the members of the Society meet and exchange information
The annual meeting of the society is an important platform to meet and exchange information. Members, guests and invited scientists present their research results, young scientists network with one another and with experienced paleontologists.
The annual conference takes place in a different location each year. Universities, museums and other research institutions invite the society to attend, and the General Assembly decides where the next meeting will be held on the basis of proposals received.
Vienna, Austria, September 27 – 30, 2021
We are pleased to host the 92nd annual conference of the "Palaeontological Society'' (PalGes). The meeting, like the previous ones, is designed as an international meeting to present cutting-edge research from palaeobiology, palaeontology, geobiology and related subjects. The Palaeontological Society is one of the oldest and largest palaeontological societies in the world and we "Viennese" are now hosting the annual meeting for the fifth time after 1923, 1954, 1963 and 2011. The venue, however, will be held as online conference only due to uncertainties over travel and meeting size restrictions related to COVID-19 development. Participation in the conference is free of charge. Registration, abstract submission and session/workshop proposals will be done exclusively by e-mail to palges2021(at)univie.ac.at. Unfortunately, the online format means that there will not be any poster session or conference dinner this year.
We will give priority to young scientists to allow them the opportunity to present their fascinating research topics and results to a wider audience, because of the restricted number of slots. Talks will be arranged into thematic and open sessions. Additionally, various workshops will be offered. All sessions and workshops will be held exclusively online. Abstracts will be published online in „Berichte der Geologischen Bundesanstalt'' (ISSN 1017-8880). Additionally, a public conference talk is scheduled for the evening of the first day.
You will find the most recent information and updates on the conference website (https://palges2021.univie.ac.at/en/).
