Paleontologists from the Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, will showcase their research on fossils large and small along with modern day experiments that help us understand ancient animal behavior, rare fossil preservation states, species diversity, and even modern-day ecological impacts of invasive species. Plus enjoy four lectures by some of the Southeast's top paleontologists and lunch with fellow fossil lovers.
