Dr Anthony Romilio is a dedicated palaeontologist specialising in the study of fossil dinosaur footprints and trackways. Renowned for pioneering 3D techniques as a standard in his field, he provides 3D life reconstructions and animations with advanced Python-based analytical tools to enhance the data collection and analysis processes in palaeontology. Beyond his technical expertise, Dr Romilio is deeply engaged in community outreach, enriching educational experiences in remote and indigenous schools in Australia. He has numerous citizen science projects across Australia, and his collaborative research network spans the globe, with partnerships across the USA, China, Korea, and Germany . Recognised by The Australian's Research Magazine as the top researcher in palaeontology for two consecutive years (2023, 2024), his contributions have not only propelled scientific understanding but also nurtured community connections, bringing the wonders of prehistoric times into contemporary research and educational spheres.
