@SteveBrusatte ah thanks!!

our paper on alvarezsaur forelimbs came out yesterday in proc b! we used range of motion and moment arms analysis to support the idea that these weird little dinosaurs used their teeny tiny arms to dig 🪏🦴

Range of motion and myology support a digging function for the forelimbs of alvarezsauroid dinosaurs https://t.co/wcaKs4M6Wd

What’s that on your tail?

@sidneyleedham @LivEvoBiomech & @james_charles90 review an exciting #preprint from @SchulzScience_ & team which explores how the development of a scaly-organ at the base of the tail of flying squirrels helps them stick to trees.

had such a good time working on this last year - v excited to call this my first paper (!) (and i guess call myself... a real scientist?) 🐆

paleontologist is the funniest job to me. so rare for a seven year old to stick to their major life goals
