Hey peeps! Only one week left to get in on this Kickstarter game. They've reached their funding goal and announced all the add-ons (check them out in the Updates section). kickstarter.com/projects/brexw…


Check out Holotype by Brexwerx Games on @Kickstarter kickstarter.com/projects/brexw… I got to playtest this game and it's a lot of fun. It's science-themed but accessible to everyone.


I've been excited to see this game Holotype come to Kickstarter since I was a playtester. It's a board game about finding and publishing dinos that's made for anyone interested in board games and/or science broadly. m.facebook.com/story.php?stor…

Great start to the project! @Tseng_ZJ and @BeakyThings leading the charge with 5 new undergraduate students! @berkeleybsp #TeamOMAC

Just had a great PI meeting with @Chris_J_Law and @Tseng_ZJ, co-PIs for the @NSF @OMAC_evolution project. Lots of awesome research going on with @BeakyThings @mollie_tessler and some more fab @UCBerkeley undergrads who are joining the team!

On this #TurtleTuesday, I used a Geoemyda spengleri CT scan (UMMZ herps 227761) from @MorphoSource to teach some of our PhD students how to use Mimics. Look at that huge egg (typical for geoemydids), while the turtle itself is only 10 cm carapace length 🤩🐢♥️

Very excited to share my first paper from my dissertation! Overwintering aggregations have lower metabolic rates and activity levels than solitary conspecifics in a lady beetle. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Trailer - Want to microCT and don't know where/how/what? For #SICB2022 Open Tech Symposium (S9), I'll discuss why open-source software @3DSlicerApp @SlicerMorph are great for you + students in terms: Access (anytime use), equity (for all), + cost. Talk upload to YT soon! 1/2

@berkeleyIB @UCBerkeley students, @OMAC_evolution is recruiting through the Biology Scholars Program! Come work with us! @Tseng_ZJ @Chris_J_Law @BeakyThings are amazing!

Berkeley folks, please spread the word! We're looking for an undergrad through the Biology Scholars Program to work on anatomical modeling! This student will work in a collaborative team with 3 other students and #TeamOMAC! Apps due by 1/10/22 to @Tseng_ZJ @MVZUCB @berkeleyIB

Skimmers have unusually long lower bills to allow them to skim-feed over water surfaces while flying. Something I only realized today while sectioning? All of that underbite is keratin; the actual bone is the same length on both the upper and lower jaw! (model from Morphosource)

The recently announced winners and finalists of the 2021 Comedy Wildlife Photography include a visibly uncomfortable monkey, a trio of gossipy raccoons, a joyful bird reunion, gravity-defying fish and an all-powerful prairie dog. n.pr/3CCNvk5

Don’t think for a second that the precedents set today will apply to armed demonstrators on the left. If only there were a framework, a theory if you will, that allows us to critically analyze how the law upholds and reinforces racial oppression and whiteness 🧐

I'm spending some time at @MuseumofNature looking over this gorgeous #Corythosaurus skull today! This individual died as a subadult, so its crest wasn't fully developed. #FossilFriday

It's coming up to graduate school application season and I am just getting around to going through emails from prospective applicants. There's a lot of secret etiquette around grad applications, but one of the most important is it's good to reach out to prospective advisors. 1/2

Rendering fabulous CT volumes in @3DSlicerApp like me or @Fishguy_FHL has never been easier. New colormaps through the @SlicerMorph extension just dropped for both 8bit and 16bit data.
