Since 2007, new Members are required to maintain Ordinary Membership for a continuous period of three years before being invited to become a Fellow of the RMS. Invitations are subject to members meeting one or more of the qualifying criteria listed below. This list of activities is not exhaustive and we will add additional activities as they are approved by our Executive Council. If you have any suggestions for activities you feel may be appropriate, please contact the membership team. This restriction applies to current members who allow their membership to lapse.

In some circumstances, Council may choose to allow an individual to join the Society as a Fellow. In these instances the individual would be a known and respected member of the microscopy and imaging community with a substantial number of years experience.
