Join us this Thursday for a Juneteenth Edition of Science Conversations. We'll celebrate the work of two African-American researchers — Dr. Patricia Bath (surgical procedure for cataracts) & Dr. Mandë Holford (researches snail venoms and pain medications) bit.ly/3oYcb6a

Teachers, check this out! NC Museum of Natural Sciences is working on a project meant to introduce middle school students to paleontology, which will also benefit researchers around the globe. publicradioeast.org/2023-06-19/mid…

Weee’rrreee baaack! Happy 1st day of school for many #NorthCarolina students! And happy #MicrofossilMonday! Check out this gorgeous Pachycephalosaurus tooth we found in Montana this summer on Lindsay Zanno #dinodig23. Ready to see what our students find this year.

Bayshin Tsav has an insane amount of bone. First day prospecting I found 5 theropod claws, a therizinosaur humerus… oh yeah & a couple of hadrosaur skeletons too 🙄🤣 #MADEx23 #dinodig23 @natgeo

It’s been a bit - been busy microfossiling. And so has Elise Flynn’s 8th graders at Polk County Middle! Making discoveries + making the news. We’re lucky to work w/ y’all. tryondailybulletin.com/2024/01/25/pcm…

Cretaceous Creatures has reached ~14k NC students who have ID'ed ~4k microfossils from near where the Dueling Dinosaurs were found in Montana! Our buddy Secretary Reid Wilson stopped to check out these big fuss over these tiny fossils. (L) Richardoestisia tooth (R) Lizard jaw.

Including a public science project allowing students to discover real microfossils from sediment buried near the #Duelingdinosaurs fossil and send them to NC Museum of Natural Sciences for research called CretaceousCreatures

Very excited to share that we’ve found a skeleton (w/skull) of a new genus of Coniacian-Santonian ankylosaur! 🤩 filling a big glaring hole in North American dinosaur evolution #dinodig24

For #FossilFriday, Dr Headbutt 🐏 she/her 🌈💙 & I have a new paper out on the definition, usage, & protocol regarding the term "headbutting/head-butting/head butting" in dome-headed fossil taxa! What exactly is "headbutting"? Why a domed-head? Are domes rare? Read the paper to find out!
