Dinosaur expert Kristi Curry Rogers was the guest last night at MPR's Bright Ideas with host Stephen Smith.
Rogers conducts field research in Montana, Madagascar, and Zimbabwe and teaches at Macalester College in St. Paul. They discussed all things dinosaurs, but they also talked about why there aren't more women studying in the field of paleontology.
We're going to air the entire conversation at a later date, but we'll play an excerpt from last night where Smith asks Rogers how many women were in the field of paleontology when she started.
