Scientists working on uranium (U)‐series isotopes in igneous and sedimentary systems came together for a symposium in mid‐February. The overall objectives of the symposium were to advance understanding of the timescales of magmatic and sedimentary processes and to identify key scientific and analytical future research directions. Twenty‐nine participants from 16 institutions attended the symposium. The keynote speakers were Kari Cooper (University of California, Davis), Francois Chabaux (University of Strasbourg), and Ken Sims (University of Wyoming).
