Our team is Legend (wait for it) dary! Ohio State, Stanford, UW Madison, UW Seattle, UC Santa Cruz, Arizona State & of course the Native Bio Data Consortium within the borders and legal jurisdiction of the Cheyenne River Lakota Nation! Woop woop! First time ever! The FOUR BANDS lead the way again!

Excellent and exciting work 👏👏👏 #archaeology 🏺🧪

Scientists just found several fossil bumblebees covered in pollen that directly matches fossil flowers nearby. The 24-million-year-old discovery reveals the oldest known evidence connecting pollinators to the pollinated. #Paleontology #NationalFossilDay 🧪🏺 New at @sciencenews.bsky.social

Very interesting study on a very interesting hominin!

Paranthropus boisei is a human fossil cousin w/ giant jaws and teeth that lived in East Africa ~2.6 to 1.3 million years ago. Whether it could make & use tools has been a paleoanthropological mystery since the 1960s. Our new paper describes the first firmly associated hand and foot. 1/

🧪Did I really have time for this story? No, I did not, for reasons I'll be sharing soon. Did I absolutely feel compelled to write it anyways? You know I did! A viral mystery solved by science. Read on @sciencenews.bsky.social Also, I have a new to-do for my trip to Chicago for #SciWri25 next month!

New blog post! Let's say you have two measures meant to capture the same confounder. They're highly correlated. Can you still proceed with your regression analysis? (I admit, the title is a bit of a spoiler) www.the100.ci/2025/10/13/i...

🧪🏺🦣 Hugely exciting area for faunal & hominin ID using tiny fragments of bone within sediment sample blocks, allowing attribution to micro-layers: crucial to advance knowledge in Palaeolithc sites, especially those already excavated. Sites tested: Bacho Kiro Cave, La Ferrassie, and Quinçay

That insanity goes down officially as a grounded into double play, making it the only batted ball hit over 350 feet for a GIDP in the pitch tracking era (reg. + postseason). Max Muncy grounded into a 404-foot double play.

Big news, friends: on December 3rd, I'll be launching a brand-new history show, "Past Lives." Every episode focuses on the life of a real person from history and tries to make sense of their experiences and their world. There will be weekly scripted episodes and tons of bonus content on Patreon.
