Professor Paul Barrett of the Natural History Museum and Professor Xu Xing met by chance in the 1990s as students in China. Paul was a PhD student; Xu Xing was studying for his Masters, and still not sure what to focus on for his future. Today, Paul believes Xu Xing to be the living person who has named the most dinosaurs.
20 years on, they remain close friends – their work together echoing the increasing cooperation and communication between palaeontologists worldwide, ushering in what some are calling ‘a golden age of dinosaur studies’.
Find out more about their incredible international friendship and what their collaborations have contributed to the world of palaeontology in this new video!
