Can testify that Sam is a wonderful mentor and an incredible person to work with! Any questions please feel free to reach out!

Job alert: I’m hiring two postdocs! The first is a 24 month position looking at the first anatomical radiation of ray-finned fishes during the mid-late Palaeozoic; the second is a 33 month position looking at macroevolutionary trends in ray-finned fishes during the Palaeozoic 🐟

@GilesPalaeoLab Thank you Sam!

I mean that was what we're discussed for chapter 4 right??

[Struan Henderson @struhenderson]

Thesis submitted! 🥳🥳🥳 The most enormous thanks to @GilesPalaeoLab who has been endlessly supportive and the best mentor a PhD student could ask for. And thanks to all the other people who have helped me along the way! #PhDone

[Struan Henderson @struhenderson]

Coming out scarily close to my first chapter, my second PhD chapter is now published! I wish I could say that this rapid succession of papers was planned along, but it really wasn't 😅 Thank you so much once again @GilesPalaeoLab and @emmadnn! https://t.co/hqu4bw0gSa

It seems that our article (w. @emmadnn) on publication pressure in palaeontology is out in the Geological Curator, in the volume edited by @BdfJjl. We wrote this more than a year ago, with material that we had from working on our other projects.

So great to catch up with my supervisor and other colleagues! Also picking up my 2020 calendar was also necessary of course.. 😅

It’s been a fantastic day catching up and chatting fossil fish with @struhenderson in person for the first time since January 2020 🤩 🐟

Among the posters, look out for excellent work by @Jake_Atterby (super cool early teleosts 🐟), @JordanBestwick1 (erythrosuchid noggins 🐊), @CharlotteMBird (cynodont braaains 🧠), @HannahC_Bird (fishy 'dark data' 🐠), and @EmilyLizeeBrown (dino bone histology 🦖) (2/3)

[Dr Emma Dunne @emmadnn]

Time to stir up some hype for our amazing @Palaeo_Bham PhD students and postdocs who are presenting their awesome work at #PalAss21 on a huge diversity of topics... 🥳 (1/3)

[Dr Emma Dunne @emmadnn]

Catch fantastic talks from @struhenderson (fishy biases 🐟), @LukeEMeade & @FionMaWS (bitey oviraptorosaurs 🦖), @SchnetzLisa ([Palaeozoic] shark tales 🦈) Edina Prondvai (bird bones 🦜), and @TJDHalliday (dino names 🦕) (3/3)

If you want to hear about some Palaeozoic chondrichthyan completeness pattern goodness, check out my pre-recorded talk at #PalAss21, scheduled at 13:42 today! Can they be worse than acanthodians and bats?

[Struan Henderson @struhenderson]

Thankful that my family and I are all healthy this past year 🍑 #PeachGiving

@GilesPalaeoLab Thank you so much Sam! Wouldn't have been able to do it without your excellent support and guidance ☺️🐟🐠🐡
