Royal Microscopical Society

The Royal Microscopical Society (RMS) is an international scientific society for the promotion of microscopy. RMS draws members from all over the world and is dedicated to advancing science, developing careers and supporting wider understanding of science and microscopy through its Science and Society activities. In support of these aims, the RMS publishes the Journal of Microscopy and microscopy handbooks, as well as helping young scientists through bursaries. The RMS also serves the needs of its company members who represent the major manufacturers and suppliers of microscopes, equipment and services. In addition to this, the RMS is pursuing an initiative to encourage young microscope users who may go on to influence microscopy in the future.

Famous quotes containing the words royal and/or society:

    Farewell the neighing steed and the shrill trump,
    The spirit-stirring drum, th’ ear-piercing fife,
    The royal banner and all quality,
    Pride, pomp, and circumstance of glorious war!
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Being dismantled before our eyes are not just individual programs that politicians cite as too expensive but the whole idea that society has a stake in the well-being of children down the block and the security of families on the other side of town. Whether or not kids eat well, are nurtured and have a roof over their heads is not just a consequence of how their parents behave. It is also a responsibility of society—but now apparently a diminishing one.
    Richard B. Stolley (20th century)
