Calling all toxicologists! Our Department of Physiological Sciences is hiring a TT Asst/Assoc faculty toxicologist here at the UF College of Vet Med 🐊🧡💙 explore.jobs.ufl.edu/en-us/job/53...

This was such a cool project to be a part of! I contributed scanning & rendering 3d anatomical models of some specimens, but this international team led by @gayani.bsky.social & @tdcapellini.bsky.social combined many methods to reveal how exactly humans evolved to walk upright on two legs. 🚶‍♀️🚶‍♂️ 🧪⚒️

Thanks for having me! Excited for many future evodevo collabs with the Griffin Lab team 🐊🦜🐥🪺

Thanks for sharing our work! #BirdAgenda

Congratulations to PhD student Aracely Martinez! 🥳🫁 Learn about the lungs of Zebra Finches (open access) royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/...

Pleased to announce the publication of a special theme issue I co-edited with Dr. John Maina of the University of Johannesburg in Philosophical Transactions on avian respiratory biology!! There are three contributions from our team, and all are OA! 🥳 royalsocietypublishing.org/toc/rstb/202...

So pleased that our team’s work made the cover of @journalofanatomy.bsky.social for January 2025! This project on African Grey Parrot air sacs and pneumaticity was led by my former PhD student Dr Adam B Lawson (now anatomy faculty at Tulane Med) 🥳🦜🦆🦅🦉#BirdAgenda

🚨Hyped to share our new article in @natureportfolio.bsky.social! We show that crocodile head scales develop from compressive folding that arises from constrained skin growth 🐊🔬 Really proud of this one - it's cool 😎 Please read & share! 🧪 @genevunige.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/s41...

The world’s oldest known wild bird, a 74-year-old Laysan albatross named Wisdom, is expected to welcome another baby chick in the coming months, astonishing scientists who have been tracking her since the Eisenhower administration. nyti.ms/4f7VadN

Happy Thanksgiving, US folks! It would make sense to share photos of Wild Turkeys but I haven’t taken any good ones recently However, yesterday I did take a bunch of photos of a friendly Anhinga, also known as a Water Turkey, so here’s a thread of Anhinga facts and photos: 1/10

📣 📣 📣 Still lots of TT jobs being advertised: The 2024-2025 list of faculty and postdoc positions in ecology and evolutionary biology is out! Be sure to check out this active and helpful community run resources! docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

Do you love talking about tomography as much as I do? I made a starter pack full of people who use CT to do their science!! Let me know if you want to join in on the tomography talk! Other 3D imaging modalities also welcome ☢️🩻👩‍🔬 go.bsky.app/VjBpAAy

New paper! For all of you working with 3d scans (e.g. micro-CT, MRI), check out SPROUT, a rapid open-source tool for generating segmented and parcellated data, meaning your scans are separated into the individual elements without any manual labelling or training. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Hi everyone who recently joined!! I'm Stephanie, a postdoctoral researcher at UF College of VetMed in @paleofox.bsky.social's lab. My main interests are birds and pterosaurs and their weird lungs, but I also do plenty of CT scanning for other projects. Digging up fossils is fun too. 🧪🪶⚒️

Extremely pleased to share our team’s latest #BirdAgenda work in Nature - we found that hawks and other soaring birds use their respiratory system to enhance their flight muscles: www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Interested in lung development? Come join the lab!

We have funding for a student in an art program to come to Friday Harbor Labs for the Spring quarter. Travel, room, board, and fees. If you know #SciArt students let them know. fridayharborlabs.wufoo.com/forms/x3puut...
