Events & Courses

The British Geological Survey is delighted to be convening this year’s British Sedimentological Research Group (BSRG) AGM.

As in previous years, we anticipate a strong turn-out from research students and early-career researchers, together with our knowledgeable and diverse community of academic and industry experts. The BSRG AGM is the most important event in the BSRG calendar and is the focus for much of BSRG's activities.

Programme highlights include sessions sponsored by PESGB and the Clay Minerals Group, a local fieldtrip to Charnwood Forest and conference dinner at the world famous Trent Bridge Cricket Ground.
