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.
