SciFest in St. Louis

Will and David recently attended SciFest: Rock, Fossil, Quake! This was an event held at the St. Louis Science Center in collaboration with the Washington University School of Medicine.

The event brought scientists and science enthusiasts face-to-face to talk about geology, earthquakes, and - most exciting for us - fossils (mostly dinosaurs)!

In this episode, we recount some of our impressions and favorite parts of the event, and include interviews with six dinosaur paleontologists who attended the event. You'll hear from:

Dr. Ashley Morhardt, Washington University

Dr. Andy Farke, Raymond Alf Museum

Dr. Denver Fowler, Badlands Dinosaur Museum

Dr. Casey Holliday, University of Missouri

Dr. Liz Freedman Fowler, Dickinson State University

Josh Matthews, Burpee Museum



Huge thanks to all of the above - and everyone else involved in the event - for a fun day of science outreach!
