In summary, our findings highlight the potential influence of evolutionary history, ecological opportunity, and reproductive behavior on the cranial morphology of bush frogs inhabiting reed bamboo internodes.
Interested in potentially automating segmentation and analyses of phenotypic variation and evolution? Check out my #GSA2022 talk, to see what myself, @tomezard and @anjgoswami have been working on! Talk today in Mile High Ballroom 3C, 13:30 MDT. See you all there!
Our new open-access paper on #dinosaur#BrainEvolution is out in @eLife today. We use CT imaging and 3-D shape analysis to show that unique allometric and integration trends dictate avian brain evolution and development.

It's been a busy couple of months, working with @jaimiAgray and @davidcblackburn, getting the #DICECT for #oVertTCN spun up. There are a lot of really cool soft tissue lizard datasets that are going up on @MorphoSource. Check out this armadillo lizard scan!
SO EXCITED TO ANNOUNCE my first first-author paper has been published #openaccess in @iobopen! @mwestneat, @PaulCSereno, and I studied how wing shape in waterbirds changed with regard to a wide variety of biomech and ecological variables. #TeamBird

In frogs, adult ecology is more important than larval ecology for skull evolution, but species that don’t feed as tadpoles evolve faster than those that do.

Delighted to see our new paper on frog skull evolution published in @NatureComms! This massive collaborative effort w/@CarlaBardua @grumpyDrFabre J. Clavel @davidcblackburn @DrScanley@sci_voyage & M. Bon shows how larval vs adult ecology drive skull shape https://t.co/3iEm1dTBmU
Take a look at this adorable frog-shaped sweet bag. Made in the 1600's, it may have been filled with scented herbs, dried flowers, sweet-smelling powders or as wrapping for a gift. (Photo credit: Ashmolean Museum)
"A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away — welcome to Jurassic Park!" …well, kind of. 🌌🦕
The light we see in @NASAHubble's view of galaxy NGC 7678 began its journey to us 164 million years ago, in the Late Jurassic when the apatosaurus still roamed! https://t.co/DBziFX5KAM
Happy #FrogFriday!
This master of camouflage is the Vietnamese Mossy Frog (Theloderma corticale)!
There are eleven (11) species of Theloderma. All masters of their craft, these frogs range from looking like moss to imitating bird poop!
