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:
“When other helpers fail and comforts flee, when the senses decay and the mind moves in a narrower and narrower circle, when the grasshopper is a burden and the postman brings no letters, and even the Royal Family is no longer quite what it was, an obituary column stands fast.”
—Sylvia Townsend Warner (1893–1978)
“But to most of us society shows not its face and eye, but its side and back. To stand in true relations with men in a false age is worth a fit of insanity, is it not?”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
