My new(ish) colleague at @ucl-c4ia.bsky.social , @neelimasharma.bsky.social, was on the ScienceStuff podcast talking about synovial joints and rather impressively cracking her knuckles: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/w...

Congratulations to @osteosophia.bsky.social - now Dr Anderson - on successfully passing her viva! @eloygl.bsky.social and I very much enjoyed supervising Sophia and we're looking forward to the papers being published!

New paper out! The first from @osteosophia.bsky.social 's PhD - a new (hopefully more objective) way for categorising locomotor repertoires. With @eloygl.bsky.social @livevobiomech.bsky.social and Laura Fitton: royalsocietypublishing.org/rspb/article...

New paper out! From @livevobiomech.bsky.social with small contributions from me @ucl-c4ia.bsky.social , all ably led by Alice Maher - a very comprehensive look at scaling in the head and neck across tetrapods. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

New paper out today with the amazing @apwoodbailey.bsky.social all about the unusual leporid intracranial joint.

This is a horrible smear campaign. @toriherridge.bsky.social is highly qualified to comment on the de-extinction debate and as someone who's published and co-supervised with her, I can confidently say you'd be hard pushed to find anyone with more academic integrity.
