Stiff and different - Lizard osteoderm papers from a collaboration with @henrikbirkedal.bsky.social's group led by Adrian. We show a capping tissue from Heloderma that is enamel-like in mechanical properties but highly disordered in crystal pattern doi.org/10.1016/j.ac... doi.org/10.1002/adfm...

What is #IUPS2025 ? - the conference bringing physiologists from across the world,with @physoc.bsky.social , SPS and DPG, - The 2 Nobel prize lectures, on low oxygen and high resolution respectively from Peter Radcliffe and Stefan Hell. 🔬

Hi! We're Skype a Scientist! We're a free program that matches scientists with classrooms, scout troops, libraries, & other groups for Q&As all about science. Get matched with a scientist for a virtual conversation! We have 30+ types of scientist & match weekly. www.skypeascientist.com/sign-up.html

📚😅🎉 Yay!! I just submitted the complete manuscript of my upcoming book to the publisher! Learn to easily and clearly interpret (almost) any stats model w/ R or Python. Simple ideas, consistent workflow, powerful tools, detailed case studies. Read it for free @ marginaleffects.com #RStats #PyData

@markscherz.bsky.social talking miniaturisation in 🐸 🦎 🐦 and mammals, in terms of the potential for evolutionary novelty as well as constraints... to the Zoophysiology Friday seminar @au.dk #Frog #Sciart from his @erc.europa.eu funded project

🚀 Apply now 🚀 The new Max Planck #Postdoc Program offers a guaranteed contract of at least 3 years, targeted mentoring, and career workshops. postdocprogram.mpg.de #ScienceCareer #PostdocProgram

📢Exciting news 1: We just launched our new Center for Active Sensing with Sound 🎧🥳 📢Exciting news 2: We are looking for 2 new PhD students 👩‍🎓👨‍🎓 in “Echolocation in bats🦇 and toothed whales 🐬” – read more here:

This was an excellent 🐕 session @anatomyorg.bsky.social covering canine behaviour and brains, stress and welfare and anatomy of the African wild dog. 3 brilliant talks by Profs Erin Hecht, Ana Jimenez and @heatherfsmith.bsky.social.

Many thanks to the excellent speakers in our joint sponsored journal master class on the integumentary system with @devdynamics.bsky.social & @asejournal.bsky.social at @anatomyorg.bsky.social #Anatomy2025! #anatomy25

Pleasure to speak in this session (sketches of speakers- thanks to Sam Payne for doing me). Talking lizard 🦎 osteoderms: work @hfspo.bsky.social @maxivlaboratory.bsky.social from a large group including @mmoazen.bsky.social @henrikbirkedal.bsky.social- thank you @anatrecord.bsky.social for invite!

Greatly appreciated the plenary speech by @carlzimmer.com @anatomyorg.bsky.social drawing on material from 'she has her mother's laugh' to discuss Anatomy and its relationship to heredity, its history, mis use and the necessity of communicating current science.

Sketches from the @aiasdk.bsky.social workshop on cellular plasticity at the crossroads of ❤️ and 🧠 aias.au.dk/events/cellu... #BlueSci #SciArt

‪🩺 ✏️ 🧫 ⚖️Happy International Women's Day. 30 curious & clever women scientists are hosted in the #diverse community of AIAS. They put their intellect & skills into research in evolutionary biology, labour economics, cardiovascular disease & much more for the benefit of us all🙏 🎨by @cjaw.bsky.social

Interested in cell plasticity? JOIN the interdisciplinary meeting on an underexplored area: the circulatory & nervous systems w/great potential in treating age-related diseases 📆7 March at 9-16:00 🔗https://aias.au.dk/events/cellular-plasticity-at-the-crossroads-of-the-nervous-and-circulatory-systems

Fellowship opportunity at AIAS. The Artist-in-Residence Tandem Fellowship invites an artist from any discipline to team up with an @au.dk researcher on a research project. 📆APPLY by: 18 March 2025 at 12.00 (noon) CET. 🔗https://aias.au.dk/opportunities-at-aias/artist-in-residence-tandem-fellowship

Going to be talking about the 🦎 ❤️ - regenerating lizard hearts - at this meeting @aiasdk.bsky.social, presenting work led by Kathy Jacyniak at Guelph, please have a look at the fantastic talks that are on the program after mine, on 🐦, 🐍, humans, mice and others. #BluSci

Classroom/Library enrollment was down pretty bad in February. National chaos and uncertainly likely has something to do with it. Can you help me make sure that all the educators on bluesky know Skype a Scientist exists and is ready to connect them with scientists? Every RT helps! #EduSky #STEMEd

#VetSci a #PhD in Denmark @au.dk on a potential novel treatment for mastitis in 🐄. on barn on site physiology, on farm comparison with standard treatment. Epidemiology, physiology, welfare and bacteriology all possible avenues for exploration. See and apply phd.tech.au.dk/for-applican...

What 🐎 parasites are there? What have we done historically & presently to 'treat' them as vets, what resistance to anti-parasite drugs are we now seeing? What can we do differently in the future... seminar @ AU from Prof Martin Nielsen #VetSci 🧪 #Parasitology 🐡 doi.org/10.1016/j.vetpar.2011.10.012

@lbejder1971.bsky.social at @aiasdk.bsky.social seminar - Humpback 🐋: how their migration & body condition score is studied, what this can tell us about population, calf size & how this affected by changes to the climate. Can charismatic mammals be used to bring about human change? #Sciart #Blusci

Artists, I have some questions for you. Let's say, hypothetically, there was a science conference coming to your city, all about animals. The scientists are looking for artists to come to the meeting, sit in on the talks, & live-Illustrate what you learn about. This would be paid. My questions...

Now this is a very good reason indeed to be on Bluesky #Bluesci

Who can help Dr Dykes with information and connections? #OnlyConnect #SixDegreesOfSeparation #Community

The second biannual (!) Lund thermal biology symposium will take place at Lund University, Sweden, 25 to 27 November this year. Top-notch invited speakers covering tree of life, and wide range of contributed talks over 3 days. Join us by following the link 👇Please re-post. shorturl.at/WF0XI

Back in September, I was one of 36 new fellows @aiasdk.bsky.social, I drew the other 35's 3min speed talks, and the resulting sketches have just gone in virtual display at the website: aias.au.dk/events/3-min.... Since, I have tried to sketch the Fellows presentations when I've been in the room 🐡

If you see this, post your bird art 🐡

Sign for a new leaf pile. Hoping for hedgehogs. Newly reclassified as "near threatened" hopefully this will remind us to disturb minimally and keep fingers crossed for new slug-lovers.

Hello bluesky, post as (re)introduction Vet, comparative physiologist mainly interested in #pain, #anaesthesia, currently keel bones in 🐔 and skins and ❤️ in 🦎. Also does #sciart sketches of scientists talking and working. Currently @aiasdk.bsky.social and @aarhusuniint.bsky.social.

What is up with this #platypus specimen? A new paper from Henrik Lauridsen and colleagues explores the radio dense nodules and found that they were not #VeterinaryPathology, but corrosion products from metal shot. For #opendata #MRI #microCT see journals.plos.org/plosone/arti....

~80% of laying hens have fractures to their keel bone at the end of their life. If the physiology surrounding this is something you would like to study further - please apply for this PhD supervised by Anja Riber and I at Aarhus University. phd.tech.au.dk/for-applican...
