Have you heard the story of the Brazilian dinosaur Irritator? 🦖🇧🇷 This dinosaur, a relative of Spinosaurus from the Cretaceous of northeastern Brazil 🌵🇧🇷, had its fossil remains taken to Germany 🇩🇪 — and that’s where they remain to this day. 👇🏼🧶 #IrritatorBelongstoBR

This is completely insane...was not expecting to wake up to this. Even if it's an edited Canis with Aenocyon genes this is still a landmark achievement 🧬 Hopefully this will be used to increase genetic diversity of critically endangered species Wild #deextinction

Wolves (Canis or Aenocyon) have thousands of protein-coding genes, so the technology is obviously not at a point yet to yield high fidelity (20 edits only)...that being said, and publicity aside, editing extant genomes to express extinct traits is, well, quite remarkable...

I am so excited that the last chapter of my dissertation is published. In it, we investigate why crocodylomorphs seem to be so good at making it through mass extinctions but also why their responses to these events appear to differ. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/pa…

Possible DMS detection on K2-18b and now martian carbonates finally solved, crazy 24hrs for planetary science! #astrobiology

This is awesome!

Off to the field today ⚒️ Will be posting cool stuff if/when we find them..

The 2025 MacroPaleo Lab field season is off to a great start with lots of bivalves and some promising bones 🦴 #paleontology #fieldwork

The MacroPaleo Lab has officially hit the field for the first time! It was tough, thrilling, and packed with adventure. Huge shoutout to our incredible field crew! Stay tuned—some fascinating discoveries are coming your way! 🦴 🦖 🪨 ⛏️

It’s a wrap! The first MacroPaleo Lab field campaign, led by Professor Pedro Godoy, was a huge success! Stay tuned for more! #Paleontology #fieldwork

Back from the first fieldwork with the MacroPaleo Lab, full of learning and promising discoveries! Huge thanks to Pedro Godoy , Dr. Daniel Martins🐊 , and Luan. Lots of sweat and joy with this amazing crew! 💚🦴⚒️🦖🦴

One of the most interesting questions in tetanuran theropod evolution is... where do megaraptorans go? They're 'generic' and hence hard to place, but some skull features (flat frontal bones, some relatively small teeth, a stretched snout) make them look like tyrannosauroids 1/n

The voice of planet Earth 🌎 What an icon!

Introducing Mosura fentoni, a new radiodont from the #BurgessShale. Paper here: doi.org/10.1098/rsos.2… This #fossil species has 3 eyes, spiny claws, wing-shaped swimming flaps, and a unique abdomen-like body region.

Just out! My newest paper on "The Molecular Basis of Punctuated Equilibria." Thanks again so much, Niles Eldredge, for presubmission feedback! Such fun celebrating 50th anniversary of #PunctuatedEquilibria-- & thank you, Bruce S. Lieberman for the invite! 😊 bit.ly/4kmNOWO

This is glorious

It's 2025 and apparently still controversial to not want children anywhere to suffer from hunger, bombs or any other forms of lethal violence. Or is it only controversial if these children are white? Palestinian children deserve to exist.

Introducing Asmodochelys leviathan, a new giant marine turtle from the Maastrichtian of Texas! sjpp.springeropen.com/articles/10.11… This new 72-million-year-old species was one of the sole survivors of an extinct lineage that patrolled the gulf coast of North America near the end Cretaceous

The spectacular Tupandactylus navigans being displayed at the University of São Paulo’s Geoscience Museum 🏛️ #paleontology #decolonizescience

O Pirula é, sem dúvidas, a maior referência de divulgação científica do país e um grande paleontólogo. Aprendi muito com ele ainda nos meus primeiros anos de graduação, com seu jeito irreverente e didático. Desejo pronta recuperação! #voltapirulla
