Goodbye Twitter. New account at https://t.co/F0lItHMHwc

🚨 New paper led by @StrepsiPrimate and coauthored by @marye_blair @LoganKistler Hsiao-Lei Lui and @epeters_Rdch on the promises and challenges of using historical DNA to study galago evolution and conservation. @IntJPrimatology https://t.co/a9cfxsdwGl

I was happy to have the opportunity to involve my wonderful student/colleague Anna in this project. Somehow it felt right to pass the torch from my mentor, Judith, to my mentee, Anna. I'm so proud of her and I'm sure Judith would be as well 🥰

New paper alert!!! 🚨 In this article my former PhD student @StrepsiPrimate and I reviewed the current status of galagid taxonomy, phylogenetics, and biogeography, and explored future approaches to elucidate cryptic diversity in these neglected primates https://t.co/6BknCE0OpU

It was really challenging to try to make up for this loss and their immense knowledge on the topic. This paper is dedicated to their memory. Their work on galago systematics will be deeply missed

Join us for a transdisciplinary exploration of the interconnected realms of humans, plants, animals, and the environment, featuring invited talks by renowned anthropologists @PaigeWestNYC and @Anthrofuentes, a poster session with UTSA students, and a moderated discussion

[UTSA Anthropology @UTSAanthro]

Our students are the best! Check out the Anthro Expo today at the @UTSA main campus. @anthsocietyutsa

@CHES_Rutgers Thank you so much for inviting me. It was a lot of fun to share some of my research with the department and talk to students and faculty!!!

I had a great time at #AABA2024 meeting old and new friends/colleagues. The highlight was taking this picture of Laurey Godfrey celebrating her Charles R. Darwin Lifetime Achievement Award. Congrats Laurey, well deserved!!!

Interested in studying primate phylogenetics, genomics, and climate change? I'm currently recruiting MA students to start in Fall 2024 at @UTSA (funding available). The deadline for MA application is April 1. If interested, contact me for more details https://t.co/S0sodS176T

Fantastic conference on the use of Generative AI in teaching and learning organized by @utsa_innovation! The student panel was the highlight: it was inspiring to hear their thoughts on the topic #innovateSATX

[Luca Pozzi (he/him) 🏳️‍🌈 @PozziLab]

Great opportunity to work in a great research group and on one of the best primates!

[Luca Pozzi (he/him) 🏳️‍🌈 @PozziLab]

Congratulations Dr. Penna (aka @StrepsiPrimate)!!! It was a privilege to be your PhD advisor and I couldn't have hoped for a better first PhD student. The future of galago systematics is in great hands :) #proudadvisor

[Luca Pozzi (he/him) 🏳️‍🌈 @PozziLab]

Need some advice from my academic peeps: what's your favorite popular science book about human evolution (in a broad sense)? #anthropology #humanevolution

[Luca Pozzi (he/him) 🏳️‍🌈 @PozziLab]

Do you know what is better than one Endowed Professorship? Two Endowed Professorships 😅 OMG I can't express how grateful I am for being selected as one of the Lutcher Brown fellows. Thanks to @UTSA and @UTSAanthro for the continuing support 🥹

Such an honor to have been selected as one of the recipients of the Ricardo Romo Ph.D. Endowed Professorship. Looking forward to working in the @UTSAHC and developing new courses for our exceptional students. @UTSA @UTSAanthro
