Welcome to the FOSSIL Project's YouTube Channel! What is the FOSSIL Project? FOSSIL stands for Fostering Opportunities for Synergistic STEM with Informal Learners - it is a project funded by the National Science Foundation. We want to connect professional and amateur paleontologists, earth-science educators, students, and interested members of the public in an online paleontological community of practice.
