The one big drawing I did at #2025SVP
Drawn during presentations and lunches over 2 of the days! Thanks to @paleobyliam.bsky.social for suggesting the clouds type (asperitas) while we talked on that one lunch break (: Was great meeting you Liam, post more of your sketchbook!! #paleoart
Sketches from #2025SVP! All of these were done during the presentations! With a taxon I cannot yet reveal on pic 2 👀

I got to chat with Robert Sansom about the reptile decomposition research when I was at #2025SVP this last month. Here's the full podcast of The Fossil Files from the meeting, which includes my bit: fossils.libsyn.com/rotting-croc...
Saw my hairdresser, buddy & #2025SVP DJ Tom this morning, who was saying again that the SVP crowd was one of the most up for it he’s ever seen.
Great to see my #2025SVP talk on our team’s Jurassic fossil discoveries on Skye covered as a meeting highlight by Jennifer Harmon in this blog post:

To celebrate the 85th SVP Meeting 2025, we've assembled an open access collection of landmark JSP vertebrate palaeontology papers.

The penultimate paper by Zack (2018), looks at the clade Machaeroidinae, comprising mammalian sabre-toothed carnivores. Read here: buff.ly/bni3lGP #PaleoSky #2025SVP

Annual Meeting #2025SVP was an absolute blast! Great to reconnect with European colleagues this year, and to hang out with EDDy Lab folks again. I presented some of our ongoing work on #teeth #biomechanics. Stay tuned, more toothy madness on the way! 🦷
New blog post: The Boesseneckers in Britain - a bit of a travelogue on our visit to the UK for the Society of Vertebrate Paleontology meeting, Sarah's very belated graduation, and some sightseeing in London. 🦖 #2025SVP @tetrameryx.bsky.social coastalpaleo.blogspot.com/2025/11/annu...
Skeleton of a short necked plesiosaur mounted on a wall: it has a large, ~meter long head, a two meter long neck, a fusiform two meter long ribcage, and four ~1.5 meter long flippers - the entire damn thing is preserved in articulation.
#fossilfriday Sarah stands in for scale against the surprisingly large skeleton of the Jurassic pliosaur Rhomaleosaurus cramptoni, on display in the "Mary Anning hall" at @nhm-london.bsky.social. This is a cast of the type, from the Whitby Mudstone of Yorkshire. @tetrameryx.bsky.social #2025SVP
Presenting my recent research with The Open University on South American crocodyliform macroevolution through the Cenozoic.
Catching up with friends not seen in years at the icebreaker drinks at the Lapworth Museum in Birmingham, UK.
Nice to share a toast with my mentor, Prof. Mike Benton, and former Benton lab mates. Great to see Mike receive the Romer-Simpson Medal to honour his lifetime of work in the field of vertebrate palaeontology.
Nice to also catch up & have fun with friends at the awards dinner and party to wrap off a very successful conference!
A small selection of snapshots from #2025SVP last week for this #FossilFriday! This was my first @societyofvertpaleo.bsky.social meeting since 2022 & it was fantastic to see so many friends & colleagues after so long. Presented my latest research & forged new connections - much exciting work ahead!
My livestream yesterday talking about #2025SVP was 3 hours long!! Great fun!!
Showed all my sketches done in Birmingham and talked aaall about the entire experience of the convention! Thanks to the people that showed up! Excited to start new #paleoart projects in my next streams! #sciart

Here's my #2025SVP photo album. It starts with @fossilrob.bsky.social giving his talk, and an amazing photo of him and @profpaulbarrett.bsky.social from c. 2009 when he first started the work (1/n)
Comfortably back home from #2025SVP! Slept for 12 hours after traveling for 14!
Now to start posting aall the sketches I did while there!
Im streaming in a couple days talking all about my experience and showing all art early so look out for that!
Yuty & baby Maiasaura!

This meeting one of my bests.
Had a fantastic experience last week at #2025SVP! Terrific talks & posters, enthralling conversations with peers; including some I’ve never met or haven’t seen in years. And of course, a great chance to spend time with the old lab team promoting our collective shark research! 🦈
The end of the final event of #2025SVP - it's been an amazing experience hosting it, thanks so much to everyone involved in helping make it happen. Back to the day job tomorrow.
It's the end of the #2025SVP UK dinos field trip. We finished with a visit to Dewars Farm dinosaur track site (muddy), and the Oxford Uni Museum, where we were lucky enough to get a tour of the Buckland archives and collections. Home for sleep...
One of the most touching moments from #2025SVP: turtle paleontologists from Taiwan, Yi-Lu Liaw & Cheng-Hsiu Tsai, gifted me this beautiful wooden engraving featuring their newly described Early Pleistocene loggerhead turtle— a thank-you for reviewing their manuscript & helping it reach publication
Wonderful days at #SVP2025, where I presented my work on the phylogeography and paleodiet of Iberian brown bears, and was a co-author on Dario Estraviz’s poster about Portugal’s bears. I absolutely loved the conference (best logo ever!) and the chance to visit Birmingham #2025SVP
I only saw one piece of ai art at #2025SVP and it was labeled as such.
Almost every talk used actual art lovingly and liberally, and credited artists.
Another thing that makes me love this community.
Quite a jump from #2025SVP in Birmingham to #COP30 in Belém! If I had been asked which of these conferences would feature a dancing TRex presenting the fossil of the day award, I would definitely have guessed wrong (but it has smoothed my transition 🦖🦖🦖)
