I'll also be looking to recruit an MS student to study the functional morphology and biomechanics of adhesion, friction, and/or locomotion in sea urchins, geckos, or anoles! Please share! @sicb-dcb-dvm.bsky.social @sicb.bsky.social

Ok folks, time to help with actual science while scrolling social media! Marine biologist Dr. Steve Haddock is conducting a study on public perception of this critter down below. He needs replies! Please go talk to Steve and re-skeet far and wide!

Oxford had a talented group make a video about the #dinosaur tracks in Oxfordshire this summer. Birmingham also had a talented group make a video. I made the video for our group. It is less professional. And has wildly inappropriate music: youtu.be/6ULOHr7dkF0

Want to do a PhD on White Sharks using high-powered imaging to analyse form and function of their teeth and jaws? You will work with me and the dream team @charlie-huveneers.bsky.social @meyer-sci.bsky.social @weisbeckerbblab.bsky.social & #SARDI at Flinders Uni 🦈🦷🦴 Interested? Get in touch!

New palaeo-PhD opportunity! Will you be the one to figure out the anatomy and function of fossil jawless fish? Come join the team! Application Deadline August 22nd, funding for UK student only (sorry) www.findaphd.com/phds/project...

Here come the science sketchnotes from @sebiology.bsky.social Meeting in Antwerp this July! These are shared with the presenter's permission (but all mistakes, especially spelling, are mine). First, @sharrison09.bsky.social on the jumping kinematics and power of monkey grasshoppers

📣I’m hiring! Two weeks to apply for an October start. Start date is also flexible. #PhD #Morphology #evolution

New paper led by Tash Prescott - we applied equations for speed, etc that are commonly used on #dinosaur tracks to tracks made by living birds we could watch and time. TLDR: equations aren't even nearly close. Animals moving freely on compliant substrates very different to steady-state lab data

FYI for those doing #XROMM, we've now moved everything over to github: github.com/XROMMPackages

Thank you for summarizing my research program: (and sharing beautiful fish artwork)

Research Assistant in Anatomy - position for 6 months. Great short term project to get experience in dissection and work as part of a great team! Please spread yhe word!! @bridgetwaller.bsky.social www.jobs.ac.uk/job/DMJ093/r...

🗓️ Save the date! 26-28 May 2025 | Université de Bordeaux, France. Symposium and workshop : Biomechanical simulation techniques in evolutionary morphology and biomedical sciences. More info and registration: www.eventbrite.fr/e/1263754958...

Abstract submission for @sebiology.bsky.social in Antwerp is open until Fri 7th March! #SEB2025 Plenty of #Biomechanics Special Sessions—pick your poison! 🦕 Bringing Fossils "Back to Life" 🏃‍♀️ Musculoskeletal Mechanics & Modelling 🤖 Kinematics & Robotics 🔧 Innovative Methods 🎖️ Tribute to Peter Aerts

How do you measure what isn't there? Elska did a fantastic job leading this paper on how we can measure the volume of changing, 3D spaces inside XROMM skeletal animations. And, importantly, how good are those volume measurements? journals.biologists.com/jeb/article/...

We are getting ready for the launch of our MSc! We strongly believe in the benefits of international exchange of expertise - and students! Here is your Programme Director presenting his work on gait and aging at the amazing Garden City University in Bangalore. #biomechanics #mastersdegree

Looking for an awesome Masters project with a fantastic supervisor?

Just back from #SICB2025 and already in need of more great conferences? Abstract submission for #SEB2025 is open until Friday 7 March 2025! We look forward to seeing you in beautiful Antwerp, 8-11 July 2025. 👉 www.sebiology.org/events/seb-a... #SEBCONFERENCE

🌟 POSTDOC ALERT! 🌟 I’m hiring a #postdoc to study #Birdsong #Biomechanics at the Muséum in Paris (@mnhn.fr) 🔧 Key Skills: - #Bioacoustics - Aero-acoustic modelling (COMSOL) 📅 Start: March 2024 (or earlier) I'll be at #SICB2025 – come chat or email me for details!
