I’m presenting a talk on some of my research FRIDAY at 9AM so stop by if you’re at #2022SVP and interested in non-mammalian #synapsids & the evolution of terrestrial carnivores in the late Palaeozoic! Here’s a sneak peek:

If you're at #SVP2022 and you're interested in synapsid/mammal evolution, come check out my poster this afternoon (B207) on jaw joint evolution in derived cynodonts!

We’ve had an amazing time on the UoB Palaeobiology University of Bristol Earth Sciences field trip to Spain. Fabulous rocks fossils and museums and colleagues who generously gave their time and expertise to make it possible

I've been intrigued by Crassigyrinus since undergrad days and so pleased to play a part in bringing this study to fruition. More early tetrapod excitement to come with on-going and future projects

Three! #Palaeo (#Paleo?) or biomechanics positions with me to help look at #dinosaur tracks and locomotor mechanics. All ~5 year positions. Thread for your re-X-ing or whatever we're calling retweeting these days 1/4

Pleased that our paper on mammalian jaw evolution is out today in nature. First paper from James’ PhD arising from on-going collaboration with our friends and colleagues Pam Gill, Agustin Martinelli, Marina Bento Soares and Cesar Schultz. Thread 🧵👇

Extremely excited to share the first paper from my postdoc, out today in Proceedings B Royal Society Publishing ! We explore the diversity of jaw morphologies in lepidosaurs 🦎🐍 and its evolutionary drivers. Read all about it here: doi.org/10.1098/rspb.2… #Evolution #morphology #reptiles

Sabre teeth are a classic example of convergence. Our new study, integrating 3D shape, biomechanics, and optimality modelling, helps explain why: revealing that functional optimality was a key driver behind the repeated evolution of extreme sabre-tooth morphologies🔪🦷 Link⬇️
