This image of the Field Museum team handling the life sized head of Quetzalcoatlus really puts in perspective how enormous this thing was…

This #FossilFriday - Triassic tetrapod burrow in Helsby Sandstone. Sidmouth, Devon, UK. Uppsala University palaeo field trip.

[WitmerLab @WitmerLab]

Happy #SkeletonSaturday, #SeabirdSaturday, #SquamateSaturday, #SeaturtleSaturday, & #Caturday. Accessioning some of the summer's effort into the OUVC collection. All major amniote groups—3 mammals, 1 lizard, 1 turtle, 5 crocs, & 8 birds. Thx to all the @OhioU students who helped!

[Christian A. Sidor @ChristianSidor]

Very happy to get a paper for the upcoming JVP Memoir resubmitted today with @MannArjan @FieldMuseum. Skull and partial skeleton of a new gorgonopsian from Zambia. @SVP_vertpaleo @burkemuseum @UWPaleo

[Sarah McAnulty, Ph.D @SarahMackAttack]

Um, customizable? Have you even seen what I can do with a 2011 RAV4? Get outta here.

[The Anatomical Record @AnatRecord]

Permian reptile with a powerful bite unlocks the secret evolution of hearing! 3D morphology of the unique stem reptile Bolosaurus major reveals a strong bite & enhanced hearing.

[Andrej Spiridonov @AndrejSpiridon4]

More attention needed for the ichnofossil record. Footprints have different taphonomy rules than skeletons. Therefore they potentially sample different environments, and taxa inside them. Some records are mind-blowing 👇

[U.S. Scientific Ocean Drilling @US_SciOD]

A very eventful, yet bittersweet, week 7 comes to a close as we begin the long transit back to #Amsterdam. Everyone gathered for the last core to arrive on deck Friday afternoon, marking both the end of the expedition and the program that made it possible.

🚨🚨 New preprint out now on @ecoevorxiv about the impact of fossils (or lack thereof) on our ability to accurately reconstruct continuous trait evolution (https://t.co/oQEyrSglXS)!

If you're at #Evol2024, check out @bethany_j_allen's talk at 4:30pm in 520D for details!

[Kiersten Formoso, PhD(elulu) @Formorphology]

Reminder that the first #Twister is about two academic labs trying to beat the other in collecting novel meteorological data, with the scrappy and more talented, but less funded team working hard to not get scooped.

They don't make movies for academics like that anymore.

[NHMdinolab @NHMdinolab]

Missing the festivities (I’m stuck at home with Covid) but great to see our new gardens officially unveiled today after a long, long journey to reach this point. Was fun to work with Factum Arte to get Fern looking so fabulous and to help make a lasting impression on our grounds!

[Science Advances @ScienceAdvances]

A new study in mice shows that an orally administered compound containing gallium effectively treats inflammatory bowel disease by reprogramming gut microbiota by eliminating reactive oxygen and nitrogen species which induce severe inflammatory responses. https://t.co/gTI1tP93cb

Check out our recent episodes about cool new methods of labelling fossils! (spoilers it's about tattoos too!)

[WitmerLab @WitmerLab]

As a follow-up, I indeed scanned 18 (!) alligator specimens this morning at @OhioHealth O'Bleness Hospital here in Athens, including the sawed & reassembled gator (OUVC 9628) from yesterday. Over 23,000 slices awaiting analysis & ultimately uploading to @MorphoSource. 🐊

Please join us during the virtual meeting for the Future Vertebrate Paleontology discussion panel! Moderator Dr. Laura Wilson will be chatting with a fantastic group of innovative researchers on their work, their outlooks, plus taking audience questions.
