THE PALEONTOLOGICAL SOCIETY


Media Services
This web page is intended to act as a place for media representatives to contact paleontologists if they have questions concerning the history of life on earth. Listed below are the various categories and the corresponding experts in that area of study.  These paleontologists are "quick-linked" so that your questions go directly to them. We hope that this page provides an effective communication link between active researchers and media representatives.
