Alba Vicente (Barcelona, 1985), Ferran Llorens (Barcelona, 1987) and Àngel H. Luján (Granollers, 1982) share their passion for paleontology. Àngel and Ferran have a degree in Geology from the Autonomous University of Barcelona (UAB) and Alba from the University of Barcelona (UB) and a member of the Biodiversity Research Institute (IRBio). Although this trio chose the same academic path, going through the geology course and the official master's degree in Paleontology, what really brought them together were the battles experienced in the different excavations in which they participated.
