Call for abstracts
Please send abstracts of up to 250 words plus an image to sppc at geocurator.org<mailto:sppc at geocurator.org> by 30th April. Abstracts will be considered on any topic of earth science excavation, conservation, preparation mount-making and exhibition. Please state if the abstract is for a poster or platform presentation.
The 30th Symposium on Palaeontological Preparation and Conservation will be held in the Netherlands this year on 26-27th June.
The theme will be From Excavation to Exhibition and we hope to broaden our usual remit to include more aspects of the story of how geological collections end up on display in our museums, as well as their conservation and preparation.
Examples of previous years’ abstracts can be found online at https://www.geocurator.org/events/97-sppc

Best wishes,
Lu, Kieran and Nigel (SPPC Committee)
