Calling all model makers, 3D scanners, anatomists, digital dissecters❗️❗️❗️
I'm the organiser of the symposium "Digital Resilience: Immortalising biodiversity through 3D anatomical models". Most of my network on here have incredible work that I'd love to see, so submit an abstract! Open 7th Jan 😁
Presenting my latest work on the evolution of sea urchin feeding morphology and my use of deep learning at #PalAss2026 @thepalass.bsky.social - come have a chat during the poster session!
Full chameleon cranial atlas article out now in @anatrecord.bsky.social ! doi.org/10.1002/ar.7... 🦎✨️
I have been invited to speak at the UCL BioImage Interest Group meeting on Nov 14 - find the Zoom information on this link, open for anyone wanting to learn about AI-driven digital dissection tools (www.ucl.ac.uk/science-tech...)
Downloadable and interactive versions of the 3D anatomical models are available on SketchFab (tinyurl.com/VeiledChamel...) and on FigShare (doi.org/10.6084/m9.f...) to use in future research and education - please let us know how they prove useful to your team and students! 🌟
This work was done while I was at @ucl-c4ia.bsky.social with Dr Laura Porro, @eloygl.bsky.social and @anthony-herrel.bsky.social.
The manuscript will soon be published in the @anatrecord.bsky.social (DOI: 10.1002/ar.70077)
Happy World Anatomy Day! 🦎
What better way to celebrate than announcing our veiled chameleon head atlas! This includes an awesome collection of 3D models - skull (with sutures!), jaw and tongue muscles, and the brain - plus lesson plans for your next anatomy practical! ✨️ Links below ✨️

Researchers from the Sumner Lab talk about how their research informed our latest virtual reality exhibition, World of Wasps. Read more here: www.ucl.ac.uk/museums-coll... #GMZWasps
The scan I did of a paper wasp nest earlier this year is now a VR exhibit at the @uclgrantmuseum.bsky.social - check it out next time you're in London!! 🐝
Delighted to add that this also won the best poster prize! Thanks to all that came to see my work
My poster on our new 3D digital atlas of veiled chameleon cranial anatomy will be presented at tomorrow's UCL Festival of Digital Research! Check it out if you're in the area 🦎 #ucldigifest

Something a bit different! Last year I was interviewed by Eero Höök from XAMK to help shape the design of a video game! Thoroughly enjoyed imparting my favourite #frog facts to help bring the characters in this thesis to life 🐸

@leaveylab.bsky.social: evolutionary biologist with a go-get-em attitude, I'm yet to see a task she wasn't willing to conquer. I worked w Alice on #diceCT frog legs, & now she's shining in her postdoc on chameleons! She's been busy publishing her PhD research: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

Exciting to get our J of Morphology email alert on articles published today and see our Alice Leavey's paper on #frogs highlighted. Fruitful collaboration with the Royal Veterinary College and her supervisor, our LauraBPorro. #biology@leaveylab.bsky.social
