The conversation covered why outdated dinosaur reconstructions remain widespread, how the Audit framework supports evidence‑based updates, and the broader impact accurate reconstructions have on public engagement with palaeontology.

In July 2026, Need To Know published a tribute article exploring how Sam Neill’s portrayal of Dr. Alan Grant in Jurassic Park inspired my early fascination with dinosaurs and ultimately influenced my path into palaeontology. The piece also reflects on my experience meeting him at Wales Comic Con in 2019 and the impact his work had on my scientific journey.
