About this event

How was the excavation of Xinjiangtitan, with an articulated skeleton reaching 19 meters, carried out? In addition to sauropods, theropods and stegosaurs have also been found in the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region, but what significance do they hold for dinosaur research in China? A leading authority on the excavation survey will discuss these topics. In this lecture, the drama of discovering the giant Xinjiangtitan and the academic significance brought by Chinese dinosaur research will be deeply explored from an expert's perspective. It will be a valuable opportunity for those interested in dinosaur evolution and paleontology, especially those who want to learn about the forefront of dinosaur research in China.
