@LeverhulmeTrust p.s. if you think this is exciting, too, we're looking for a PhD student to join our team:

Thanks to @LeverhulmeTrust for supporting this research and letting us share more about it!
We're really excited to figure out how the neck is moving and contributing to feeding on land and water.

[The Leverhulme Trust @LeverhulmeTrust]

Using advanced 3D imaging, @CampAriel and Daniel Schwarz explore the diversity of salamander necks to reveal their crucial role in the evolution of terrestrial feeding and land-dwelling vertebrates: https://t.co/SJbpnXWFLf @LivEvoBiomech

Last week to apply for a 4-year @LeverhulmeTrust funded post-doc position--looking at salamanders to learn how tetrapods use their necks to eat--in my lab!

If you have a background in #kinematics and like 3D motion/anatomy challenges, take a look.

Funded PhD opportunity! Developing a machine vision approach to monitoring kennelled dogs. Supervisors (myself, @connahkendrick, @supersealsense, @MielkeAlexander) span computer science, biomechanics & animal behaviour, in collaboration with @DogsTrust https://t.co/p9Ntyr6E8K

[Peter Falkingham @peterfalkingham]

The #ERC/#UKRI funded post-doc in my lab, looking at #dinosaur locomotion through footprints, is open for one more week. Maybe you have a #biomechanics background, or maybe you have a #geotechnics background, take a look! 4-year position!

[Ariel Camp @CampAriel]

You will use x-ray video and digital animations (XROMM) to reconstruct neck motion across habitats and development. Primarily using scientific rotoscoping (markerless XROMM) to create and analyse accurate and precise 3D animations of the vertebral column.

Applications close 27 September. Please contact me with any questions!

[Ariel Camp @CampAriel]

This is a full-time postdoc position starting 1st March 2025, as part of a @LeverhulmeTrust project: “The rise of vertebrate necks: how salamanders use the spine in feeding.”

[Ariel Camp @CampAriel]

You’ll be based at University of Liverpool, UK supervised by me in the @LivEvoBiomech group, and collaborating with Daniel Schwarz at @SMNStuttgart in Germany (and Sam Van Wassenbergh and @dynxlab at @UAntwerpen in Belgium.

@ZooMechanist @elbrainerd Whoah, look at the "stomach" moving when it deflates!

[Ariel Camp @CampAriel]

@kriscrandell 👏Any progress is progress!

But yeah, I hate this part of proposal-writing, too
