Delighted to be co-author on this new paper led by my colleague Elis Newham, using a large dataset of cementum increments to explore the evolution of mammal life history. Looks like Jurassic crown #mammals were already living faster lives! #MesozoicMammals science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Excited to see this study led by D'Juan Farmer finally come out after 1.5 years of revisions. My favorite part of the paper is the grem1a:nlsEOS line he made that beautifully lights up the sutures just as they are starting to form. D'Juan Farmer nature.com/articles/s4146…
