We look forward to joining together virtually with our members around the globe! This year, all members are invited to attend Paleontological Society events (exclusive of the GSA technical sessions) free of charge. Just click on the Zoom links for the specific events below to join. The most celebratory of our events is the Paleontological Society Awards Ceremony. Please join us on Monday, October 26, noon to 1:30 pm EDT to honor our exceptional students, newly elected Fellows, and 2020 award recipients.
