Here's @LukeMuscutt talking #plesiosaurs and Flip the swimming plesiosaur robot. At the end of the day, Flip was introduced to #MaryAnning, a celebration of 200 years of plesiosaur knowledge and Mary's contributions :) 4/n
This talk covers the work that I did during my doctoral research in Southampton, studying with @Bharath_Lab, @gabrielweymouth, @Colin7Palmer, Gareth Dyke, and @TetZoo. The plesiosaur robot would never have happened without them 🙏
If you would like some more information about the hydrodynamics of Pliosaurs as seen on #attenboroughandthegiantseamonster, check out my latest YouTube video, which is the talk I gave at #tetzoocon before introducing Flip.

Some sort-of-previews for my Ancient Sea #Reptiles, to be published early 2023 by @NHM_London. A book I've been trying to get published for decades: a well-illustrated tour of #Mesozoic marine #reptile diversity and history. Will be giving talks about the book during 2023.
