I am Will Dunham and I am in Washington, D.C., where I cover a wide range of [science topics](https://www.reuters.com/authors/will-dunham/) for Reuters. We have recently hit the [200th anniversary of the first formal scientific recognition of a dinosaur](https://www.reuters.com/science/first-dinosaur-was-named-200-years-ago-we-know-so-much-more-now-2024-02-13/) — our toothy friend Megalosaurus — and there are many other developments in the field of dinosaur paleontology as well.
I have been a journalist in Washington since 1984 and at Reuters since 1994. I have covered science news for Reuters off and on since 2001 and I’m also an editor on the Reuters Global News Desk. On the science front, I have covered everything from voracious black holes to tiny neutrinos, the sprawling human genome to the oldest-known DNA, the evolution of our species to the field of space medicine, and of course all things relating to dinosaurs and other intriguing prehistoric creatures.
**Ask me anything and everything dinosaur-related and I will answer from 3-4 p.m. Eastern.**

If you could clone and hatch a live dinosaur like in Jurassic Park, could it actually survive in our current atmosphere and climate?
