These all look excellent!
We’ll learn new tools and methods to apply to research in evolution in our upcoming courses! 🧵👇

🚨Our paper testing the impacts of salinity on phenotypic rates in nearly all ray-finned fishes recently arrived!🚨 Salinity is generally a weak predictor, but predictive potential for freshwater-brackish, lake living, and larger species. Free PDF here: bit.ly/fishRates

New paper out looking at the potential for ecosystem engineering lineages to cause faunal turnover (with reference to the E-C transition). Collab with @PalaeoTom, @Cambriannelids and the inimitable @RussellGarwood who did all the heavy lifting with TREvoSim.

Reminder that I'm looking for a MSc student to work on morphological diversification in fossil crinoids. Please share w/ any students who may be interested & FYI I'll be at the @geosociety GSA meeting next week
I'm recruiting a MSc student to work on an NSF project focusing on morphological disparity in crinoids from Anticosti Island. My lab at @OU_Paleo uses fossils, fieldwork, & phylogenetic modeling to study macroevolution in extinct invertebrates. Feel free to reach out & please RT!

Can anyone give advice on the costs of scientific illustrations? e.g. is there a cost per hour or does it depend more on the figure?

In time for #FossilFriday! A very nice article in the Norman Transcript featuring @LenaDoesScience and I about why understanding extinction in the fossil record is relevant today. Thankful to share the work we do at @SamNobleMuseum and @ougeosciences. normantranscript.com/news/sa…

When did feathers evolve? Are bird feathers homologous with pterosaur tufts? Check out our new preprint, lead by the fantastic Pierre Cockx. We use different models, outgroups and coding strategies to clarify feather evolution. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
