Thank you @chesterscibar.bsky.social for hosting such a fun evening! I loved all the questions and audience participation, and left with so many new ideas :)
This is a useful pre-step for height mapping colours: peterfalkingham.com/2020/04/29/c...
Our PhD opportunity is still open. A match-funded project with @chesterzoo.bsky.social, where the student will also be a Conservation Scholar. An exciting interdisciplinary project that can be tailored to the student. Even the pigeons are interested in our LiDAR scanner!
Come learn about how pufferfish puff into such adorable angry balls...in a bar! Join us tonight at @chesterscibar.bsky.social :)
Really enjoyed this seminar from @drrostireadioff.bsky.social in our Musculoskeletal Biomechanics MSc @msc-mubm.bsky.social. She's doing such cool work linkingbiology and engineering...left with lots of new ideas!
Thanks @acsharp.bsky.social for hosting, and Rosti for letting me share this :)

Productive afternoon in @livuni-ilcams.bsky.social weekly seminar practicing sketchnoting and learning a little bit about cardiophysiology :)
Thanks to @rainbowlabuol.bsky.social for explaining his work so well and letting me share it.
We love Tiny Cat in this house! Somehow this feels like a fitting origin story :)
only the most competent avian scientists have the confidence and enthusiast to talk about "birdies". The rest of us imposters are hiding our ignorance behind technical jargon ;)
😂 @kriscran.bsky.social surely this makes you adorable and relatable?
We are hiring a POSTDOC on an NIH award to measure inertial effects of (in)active muscle. Please share and re-post widely! Please send expressions of interest to my UML email.
📑‼️ New commentary out today from Roger on the importance of experimental design and best practice for muscle mechanics experiments!
I'm quite happy with this paper - I think it's a relatively accessible read, and includes our most advanced track simulations yet. Thanks to everyone at Palaeontology for making such a nice paper.

Sounds amazing! I'll be signing up for a second year...hoping to get luck this time :)
If you're not enticed by this title I don't know what to tell you...
New blog up from PhD student Betzy @betzymanners.bsky.social about her participation in a recent outreach event at @ntlmuseumsscot.bsky.social !
It’s day one back after 13 months of maternity leave. Started strong with not remembering how to make a new email. It’s going to take me a while to get back up to functional. but I want to be transparent and open for any other parents returning to work. This is hard.
This thread is joyful, highly accurate, and includes links to help you acquire your own mavelous biololgy plumage. Thank you for brining wonder to my Tuesday @rebeccarhelm.bsky.social
