    Paleontology Uncharted

    In this episode of The GeoTrip, Cameron Muskelly, a self-taught paleontologist, shares his journey into the world of geoscience and paleontology.

Cameron explains the importance of mentorship, the various branches of paleontology, particularly invertebrate paleontology, and the fossilization process. He also shares insights from his fieldwork in Georgia and his aspirations in science communication and research, offering valuable advice for aspiring paleontologists and non-traditional students alike.
