Facilities

The Palaeobiology Research Group has access to specialist facilities to support a wide range of research activity.

Palaeobiology Laboratories
The Bristol Palaeobiology Research Group has several laboratories for specialist work in micropalaeontology, acid digestion, and physical preparation of fossils in the Inner Court Building, and for computed tomography, genomics, and biological preparation in the Life Sciences Building.
X-ray Tomography (XTM) Facility
We host the University's micro-CT X-ray Tomography (XTM) Facility in the Life Sciences Building. This is widely used at Bristol for visualisation of fossil specimens in rock matrix, for biological specimens, and for inspection of geological rock samples, amongst other applications.
