I should add too that Denise’s project is a great highlight of the undergrad research opportunities at the @DukeLemurCenter and in @EvAnthDuke more broadly! That and Denise being an overall amazing researcher, but perhaps that goes without saying!
Going to #AABA2022 ?? Mark your calendars for the undergrad symposium Wednesday (6-8pm in the Plaza Exhibit room)! Come learn about the mechanics of lemur grasping from Denise, an undergrad I’ve worked with over the last year! See y’all at poster #26 !
New #DAWNDINOS paper out in @iobopen! (unformatted pdf) We studied (Bishop + me w/@AntoineFalisse + @FriedlDeGroote) how tinamou birds could jump & land, using predictive dynamic simulation. More when final version is out. academic.oup.com/iob/advance-ar…
It's time to rewrite the textbooks! @MCZpaleo @Kjonesthebones @dicksonfossils and Ken Angielczyk latest study in @CurrentBiology challenges a long-held assumption in backbone evolution in mammals @FieldMuseum @MCZHarvard #evolution #vertebrates #mammals bit.ly/3q9TMxN
Non-mammalian synapsids not quite as reptile-y as you might think.... questioning the lateral-sagittal paradigm! New paper out in @CurrentBiology with @MCZpaleo and @dicksonfossils sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
Well, confirmation that the cops literally just let them through
Today the "sexy" chapter of my thesis was published in Nature. nature.com/articles/s4158… So pleased with how it turned out with a massive thanks to my powerhouse thesis advisor @MCZpaleo Stephanie Pierce.
Just read the new paper in Nature Comms "The association between early career informal mentorship in academic collaborations and junior author performance". While it is technically "science", its conclusions are pretty gross.
Reading up on my #tetrapodamorph fossils (Young, Long and Ritchie. 1992)
Stop the presses! CT scan of a naked pangolin (armour digitally removed) reveals dense poop on its way out!
