Hear how Kevin the curator at Kronosaurus Korner in Richmond, QLD made history by uncovering Australia's most complete pterosaur to date: bit.ly/3KDED4a

Congratulations Adele Pentland, Kronosaurus Korner, and colleagues on this exciting discovery! I'm humbled to have had the opportunity to contribute with #neutronCT ANSTO!!

Celebrating the first annual Pride Night at the AMNH!

Best pin ever!! Celebrating the first annual Pride Night at the AMNH and I've been gifted an atomic pin 🤯🥳❤️ !!!

A great 1st day on my visit to the American Museum of Natural History to promote ANSTO & neutronCT to the research staff, curators, and collections specialists! Met the microscopy team & their new XrayCT, sea scorpions, trilobites, dimetrodon, cluttered hallways and more!

Corinne Mensforth with another great poster. If you’re at #ISELV2024 make sure you check out newly described anatomy of Koharalepis illuminated by neutron tomography #palaeontology

Hanging out with the Brachiosaurus altithroax holotype, a humerus, at the Field Museum! With Y a r a • يارا • Hectic Skeleton.

Check out this postdoc position for U.S. National Science Foundation project on cichlid evolution w/ HernanLopezFernandez at UMich Ecology and Evolutionary Biology. Feat. collaboration w/ @mstiassny, Jessica Arbour, & me. Ad for associated segmentation/CT tech position in UM Paleontology coming soon!

The Field Museum is establishing a CT scanning facility and is looking for a lab manager to run it. fieldmuseum.hrmdirect.com/employment/job…

Deadline for 2025-1 Proposal Round for access to #ACNS neutron beamlines & #NDF The Deuteration Network (DeuNet) facilities ANSTO is 16.9.24. Register & contact the instrument scientists if you need help. Good luck! portal.ansto.gov.au #neutrons4industry #neutrons4science

Parental feeding in the dinosaur Lufengosaurus revealed through multidisciplinary comparisons with altricial and precocious birds, Sci. Rep.: link.springer.com/article/10.103… In memory of dear friend Timothy D. Huang who brought this project, his passion and energy to us at ANSTO

Flinders palaeontology researchers and others abroad have discovered a new #coelacanth fossil, called Ngamugawi wirngarri, discovered in the Gogo Formation in Gooniyandi Country. This has revealed new exciting insights into its evolution 🔗 bit.ly/3ZlFY8D @Flinderspalaeo

Our specialist Engineering, Maintenance & Ops team has successfully installed a new cold neutron source in the OPAL multi-purpose reactor providing performance gains in the delivery of neutrons to instruments at the Australian Centre for Neutron Scattering ansto.gov.au/news/successfu…

Vertebrate paleontology has an ontogeny problem. I think I've solved it. NEW PREPRINT and THREAD 🧵 (link to preprint at the end) (Picture from Tetrapod Zoology, images owned by authors cited therein)

New paper! Led by Cal So 蘇震峰 with Aaron Kufner and Dave Lovelace, we report a really singular assemblage of stereospondyl amphibians from the Triassic (art here by Gabriel N. U.) royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rs… 1/

I’m excited to share a newly published species—Meet Ninumbeehan dookoodukah! Aaron Kufner Dr. J. Pardo Dave Lovelace UW Geology Museum royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rs…

NEW PAPER! Fossils are usually associated with bones, but soft tissues, such as skin, can be preserved. In this study, we use lasers to recover invisible, mysterious 150-million-year-old tissue decorating the tails of the first flying vertebrates, the pterosaurs. 🧵
