Our in-depth review article on the functional #morphology and mechanics of #sloth suspensory locomotion out as a preprint. The manuscript will appear as a book chapter in forthcoming book on #arboreal #locomotion. BIG thanks to all the contributors to this piece. dx.doi.org/10.13140/RG....

had so much fun putting this talk together and speaking to your students! thank you for the invite 🙏😇

Mantis shrimp can break glass with their powerful punches. Now we know why they don't break their own claws. That and more of the best in @science.org and science in this edition of #ScienceAdviser: www.science.org/content/arti... 🧪

JEB is proud of the support we provide ECRs and in their Editorial, Patricia Wright, Michaela Handel and Craig Franklin reflect on; ECR grants, the society awards sponsored by the journal and the workshops that we hosted in 2024 journals.biologists.com/jeb/article/...

Applications for the in-situ Jungle Biomechanics Lab 2025 are now open! All expenses covered to learn how to do interdisciplinary research in the Peruvian Amazon Rainforest! Open for all early career researchers across any field in STEM! bhamla.gatech.edu/project-blog...

one of my favorite side projects funded by the @leakeyfoundation.bsky.social and the Duke Lemur Center is finally published today in @royalsocietypublishing.org ! in this study, we compare in vivo grip force to anatomic estimates from eleven species of strepsirrhine lemurs doi.org/10.1098/rspb...

Stay tuned for news about the next round of the in-situ Jungle Biomechanics Lab! This NSF program brings early-career researchers out to the Amazon Rainforest to learn how to do interdisciplinary research in the field! UGs to postdocs are welcome to apply! bhamla.gatech.edu/project-blog...

Very pleased to have been invited to crash the muscle-tendon party in Finland this summer – will be speaking on 24 July and subjecting everyone to a side of #joints. Come join us!

Are you going to SICB 2025? If so, visit the JEB and Company of Biologists stand (booths 23/24) to pick up JEB goodies and find out what we do for our authors that makes Journal of Experimental Biology the best place to publish your comparative physiology and biomechanics research

🚨 New paper! 🚨 Using #XROMM on 15 #bird species, we show that trachea deforms with neck movements. This reshaping could impact sound frequencies, showing that #biomechanics of the entire vocal system is important to consider when studying birdsong 🐦🎶 #ornithology Now in @jexpbiol.bsky.social!

My new Outside JEB article @jexpbiol.bsky.social where I highlight a new paper where Nils Lanek, Scott Yanco & colleagues from @mpi-animalbehav.bsky.social, measured the energy expenditure in migratory & resident common blackbirds in Germany 🪶🧪🌎🐦 journals.biologists.com/jeb/article/...

A fun collaborative paper out in Nature on RAVEN: a bird-inspired robot that uses it’s legs to propel flight take off. An example of how robots can test ideas about integrated function in animals. www.nature.com/articles/s41...
