This account is heading dormant -- I'll log in from time to time to check, but my overall presence will be where the skies are sunny, clear, and unpolluted.

If you are departing here for less polluted skies, you can find me under the same username there!
Cullen is an incredible and creative talent -- I can't wait to see the final version of this! His 3D work is off the charts.

10,572 occurrences of fossil turtles (🐢Testudinata) from 6,194 collection points from all over the world in the @PaleoDB and counting!
Help me in my task to complete the fossil record of turtles in the PBDB: find a missing turtle paper, post it below and I will add it ASAP!
AMNH ceratopsian holotypes no longer completely lost to science?
We are pleased to share our paper testing the accuracy of 3D models scanned through glass!

🚨PAID Summer Internship Opportunity in Vertebrate Paleontology!🚨Apply to be a Summer Intern at Ashfall Fossil Beds State Park in Nebraska 🦏🦏🦏🌋 @MorrillHallUNL More info ashfall.unl.edu or contact Dr. Sam Matson (see the flyer!)
When your request for a reference photo spurs the MOR #FossilFriday post! (the photos were super helpful for getting closer to an ID on an @alfpaleo specimen we collected under BLM permit a year or two back in Wyoming...)
Happy #FossilFriday! While #dinosaurs ruled on land in the #Cretaceous, the seas teamed with different groups of #marinereptiles. #MOR6620, a marine #crocodile, used its long snout to catch fish and bony armor for protection from other predators.

Abstracts due July 25th! – at Ilmenau, Deutschland
Do you have an innovative science education project that takes place in a “non-traditional” setting (pop-culture con, sports events, drag shows, etc.)? @LisaLundgren21 and I invite you to submit an abstract for our GSA Connects 2023 symposium!
Info: community.geosociety.org/gsa…
ALT Colorized image of Rebel pilot cosplayer holding a Smilodon skull taking with a Rey cosplayer in a convention hall. Text over image reads: GSA connects 2023 session. Outside the Classroom, beyond fieldwork. Innovative approaches to informal geoscience education in non-traditional settings. Submit your abstract by July 25.
A wonderful piece from @emilystjams - on a personal note, we both used the same library as kids. It was such a magical place, and a window to the rest of the world. Let's keep libraries that way.

Belatedly made it to #MTE14! Looking forward to seeing a few folks tomorrow (and presenting some preliminary work)
Looking forward to #MTE14...eventually. I'll only make it to the final day, and am bummed to miss all of the earlier talks, posters, and conversations!

Hold on to your fossils! The 12th North American Paleontological Convention will be taking place June 17-21, 2024 at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. Be sure to mark your calendars and stay tuned as more information is to come!

In paleontology, see also: "CT Scanning" and "Finite Element Modeling" and "Histology" and "Geometric Morphometrics" (yes, yes, I've also described them as "new techniques" etc...I think we're all guilty!)
