Song Zuchen
Song Zuchen is a postdoctoral researcher at Chang'an University who recently led a study confirming that cephalopods, such as squids and octopuses, originated in the early Cambrian period around 520 million years ago. His research team discovered the earliest known cephalopod fossil, the Shaanxi Shijiangshi, in southern Shaanxi, China, which significantly advances the understanding of cephalopod evolution and addresses gaps in the fossil record from this transformative period in Earth's history.
