T-Rex Autopsies, Autism & Venomous Snakes on Friday's Access Utah

Utah Public Radio | By Sheri Quinn

Published June 5, 2015 at 11:25 AM MDT

For the first time scientists have dissected, from skin to blood and bones, a life-like Tyrannosaurus Rex dinosaur. The massive creature was one of the fiercest carnivores in the history of the planet. On Friday's AU, Sheri Quinn talks with the paleontologist leading the T. rex Autopsy, which is featured on the National Geographic Channel Sunday night.
Then, Science Questions explores new studies on autism presented at the International Meeting on Autism Research held in Salt Lake City in May.

Sheri's career in radio began at 7 years old in Los Angeles, California with a secret little radio tucked under her bed that she'd fall asleep with, while listening to The Dr. Demento Radio Show. She went on to produce the first science radio show in Utah in 1999 and has been reporting local, national and international stories ever since. After a stint as news director at KZYX on northern California's Lost Coast, she landed back at UPR in 2021.
