julieta de pasqua

I was born in Buenos Aires, and from a young age, I was fortunate enough to visit different natural science museums and national parks throughout Argentina. These places sparked a deep curiosity about the history of life on Earth. In every square or park, it was common to see me “digging” in the ground in the hope of finding new fossils. Over time, and with the encouragement of my family, that childhood passion became my vocation.

I decided to study palaeontology at the Faculty of Exact and Natural Sciences (UBA). During my studies, I collaborated with different palaeontology laboratories and was able to participate in excavations of dinosaurs, mammals, and fish. Finally, I fell in love with fossil fish and am currently pursuing my PhD in Palaeozoic fish (350 million years)
