Beautiful music from some of the world's greatest. If you're wondering why Myanmar is on the no-entry list - it's because those kids know how to deal with #Authoritarianism. See for yourself.

We are now advertising for the position of Assistant Professor of Marine Invertebrate Organismal Biology @uwsafs.bsky.social The position will be based out at Friday Harbor Labs in the San Juan Islands. See the ad below for details. @csucoast.bsky.social apply.interfolio.com/178804

Thrilled to see our review article "The evolutionary origins of synaptic proteins" highlighted on the cover of Nature Reviews Neuroscience 🤩. www.nature.com/articles/s41... @msarscentre.bsky.social 🧠✨🧬🌊🪼🧽

An exciting paper was just released describing some exceptional specimens from Brechin, Ontario. We finally know cyclocystoids had soft tissue tube feet like starfish and which side faced up! The paper is open access: www.cambridge.org/core/journal... #12DaysofFossils

The colonial tubariums of #hemichordate graptolites are the most disparate secreted matrix structures in the history of nature. The genus #Rhabdopleura emerged in the mid-Cambrian & persists today. Soon, I will reveal the chemical composition of its tubes. The project has driven me mad. Stay tuned!

As #Alberta & Québec #separatists seek referendums, realize that this is #colonialism - separatists seek to govern indigenous land & people against their consent. Separatists sideline 1st Nations who best know the land, who have much to offer in effective law, good governance, language & culture.

The University of North Carolina Wilmington is seeking marine scientists at all faculty levels... see 🧵.

This is, not a joke, one of my favourite papers in a long time. Absolutely stellar co-authors, but also a straight line from "nitpicky little nerds obsessing over sampling" to "translational research with clear implications for management". Go read all about it here: ecoevorxiv.org/repository/v...

Thank you @thepalass.bsky.social for a great conference and awarding me a prize for my poster on the results of the first chapter of my PhD! And congrats to @harrysavage.bsky.social and the other three recipients of poster prizes for their amazing work #PalAss25

New @nhm-london.bsky.social 5-day course on integrative biodiversity discovery! Learn how to collect specimens, obtain genomic data, and interpret biodiversity using cutting edge phylogenomic analysis. It's free, and aimed at early career researchers: www.nhm.ac.uk/our-science/...

@lowelab.bsky.social @laurentformery.bsky.social on whole-body single-cell RNA sequencing of the acorn worm Schizocardium californicum (Cameron & Perez, 2012). #Hemichordate "Our tissue-level atlas reveals ectodermal & endodermal cell types in larvae & adults occupy distinct transcriptional spaces"

My most effective exam question? I ask students to provide an example of something (eg, heterochrony, heterotopy, heterometry or heterotypy) from the literature. Then, discuss their findings with me before exam day. It's a fun method to engage in critical thinking & composition. 🚀 #pedagogy

I neglected to add that, though anyone can apply, French and Belgian students pay the same tuition fees as Quebec residents.

Happy #HagfishDay! We found this #hagfish inside a sponge while exploring Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary in 2018. The #Pacifichagfish (Eptatretus stoutii) is a slender, slimy, primitive fish found in cold waters worldwide.

Bacteria 🦠 🧫 play a crucial role in how animals become fossils! Read about how decay experiments demonstrate that bacteria from the gut dominate the thanatomicrobiome (the internal microbiome of decay) and probably control fossilisation in our new paper! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

Ferricrete fossils show “individual pigment cells in fish eyes, internal organs of insects and fish, and even delicate spider hairs and nerve cells…” 🤯

If anybody is interested in (or knows someone interested in) doing a postdoc at Oxford on topics aligned with marine connectivity or oceanic forcing of coral reefs, I'm happy to discuss ideas and funding routes. One option is the 1851 Royal Commission fellowships (3 years, deadline Jan 2026)!

Ever since @harrysavage.bsky.social mentioned it, stolonization has been haunting my waking hours. Now it can haunt yours too: some annelid worms develop a gamete-filled structure (stolon), which detaches and swims to find a mate. Some stolons have eyes, antennae, and nervous system 🤯 🧪🦀🦑 #evosky
