The orange spines of Penguin books are iconic. I'm thrillled #NaturesMemory: Behind the Scenes at the World's Natural History #Museums comes out in Penguin paperback TODAY.🤩 This book shares some of the surprising, magical, odd and challenging things I've learned from working in them for 20+ years🧵

I wrote lectures about DE-EXTINCTION for my human evolution and anthropological genetics courses and have been really popular with students so I decided to turn it into a very long 🧵 I'll post everything as replies here but will try to break into bite size pieces and retweet as I go:

Do you (or have you ever) worked with natural history collections? Are you trans or non-binary? If you said "yes" to both of those, @rin-krichilsky.bsky.social and I want to hear from you!

Intense ivory poaching has led to the evolution of tusklessness in some African elephant populations, which might reduce poaching, but also happens to be an X-chromosome–linked dominant trait that is lethal to males #EleFunFactFriday #TheMoreYouKnow 💫 🧪 🐘 www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

Thrilled to share our new paper out in BMC, part of my postdoc at @cornellvet.bsky.social! 🐘🐀 We found that larger mammals evolve more diverse morphologies, while smaller ones can explore many locomotor strategies without much change to their forelimbs. bmcecolevol.biomedcentral.com/articles/10....

More details coming soon, but mark your calendars ... Breakout meeting for @systbiol.bsky.social‬ The Society of Systematic Biologists - will be Jan 9-11 in Baton Rouge! Topic is 'The Importance of Natural History Collections' @jembrown.bsky.social is primary host/organizer ssb2026.github.io

We designed these materials for undergrad & grad students in conservation, evo bio, or mol ecol. They can help instructors bring ancient DNA & museum science into the classroom. I hope they inspire the next generation of conservation geneticists & museum researchers! 💡🧬🦴

🚨 New teaching resources on museum genomics and conservation are now available! 🧬🦴🌿 I'm thrilled to share a project that has been a year in the making and is very close to my heart. doi.org/10.5531/cbc....

Hi! I don't know why it took me so long to leave xitter, but here I am :) It will take me a while to rebuild my network, so suggestions of who to follow or starter packs on evolutionary biology, micro-to-macro evolution, speciation, genomics... are welcome!
