Associate Professor of Paleontology at the Universidade Nova de Lisboa (FCT NOVA). He has a degree in Biology (Univ. of Évora) and a PhD in Paleontology from the FCT NOVA. His main area of interest is dinosaur paleontology, especially from the Jurassic of Portugal, but he also deals with other reptiles (mosasaurs, plesiosaurs, crocodiles, turtles, etc.). He is the author or co-author of more than 300 publications (book chapters, scientific articles and conference abstracts). Since 1991 he has participated in and organized dinosaur excavations in Portugal, mainly in collaboration with the Lourinhã Museum, known for its important dinosaur collection. In Angola, he discovered the country's first dinosaur as part of the PaleoAngola Project. His interest in dinosaurs has led him to carry out excavations in the United States, Brazil, Greenland, Laos, Tunisia, Mozambique, Mongolia, Morocco and Angola.
He is an Associate Researcher at the Lourinhã Museum and the founder of the Portuguese Paleontological Society.

Eduardo Puértolas Pascual has a degree, Master and PhD in geology from the University of Zaragoza. Currently working as researcher in the University of Zaragoza focused on the study of the systematics, biodiversity and paleobiogeography of the crocodylomorphs from the Mesozoic on Iberia. He also has worked on other Mesozoic reptiles, addressing topics such as paleoecology, paleobiogeography and phylogeny. In recent years he has been interested in reptile paleoneuroanatomy and CT scan technology.
