Our new manuscript on the carnivorans of Madagascar is now published in @RSocPublishing! With @UWBiology's undergrad Tate Linden and @RGGSatAMNH's John Flynn, we examined skull evolution and lineage diversification of this endemic clade. 🧵1/x royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rs…
The #TeamSquirrel triology is complete! Led by undergrad @AbbyEBurtner, we (with D Grossnickle & @SESantanaM) tested the selective regimes acting on mammalian limbs to examine the gliding-to-flying hypothesis in the origin of bat flight. 🧵1/n @thePeerJ peerj.com/articles/17824/
Our paper "Challenges & advances in measuring phenotypic convergence" is out in @journal_evo! Led by Dave Grossnickle & Will Brightly, we found 2 major issues w/ current convergence methods & revised the popular C-measures to minimize these issues 🧵 1/n doi.org/10.1093/evolut…
Second @OMAC_evolution PI (after @Tseng_ZJ) to receive the DVM Mentorship Award 😎
Turns out I won the SICB DVM Mentorship Award! Thanks to all my mentees past and present. @SICB_DCB_DVM @SICB_
Proud to announce one of my PhD chapter is out in #OpenAccess in @CurrentBiology with @Val_Fisch @DavideTamagnin4 & @MargotMichaud00 🥳 Interested in evolutionary patterns of cat-like carnivorans? 🦁🔪 Here is a thread 🧵1/X doi.org/10.1016/j.cub.…
10 years in the making - my last PhD chapter is finally published! Check out our work investigating the biomechanical and energetic benefits of tool use in sea otters out in @ScienceMagazine! science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…
Check out our latest @OMAC_evolution preprint investigating the adaptive landscape of skeletal form & function in carnivorans and testing for functional trade-offs/covariation among the skull, appendicular, & axial skeleton. with @Tseng_ZJ & @LHlusko doi.org/10.1101/2024.0…
Check out our new preprint where we investigated the evolution of skull diversity in endemic Malagasy carnivorans and tested if they exhibited characteristics of convergent evolution & an adaptive radiation. w/ Tate Linden and John Flynn biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
Different ecological and #phylogenetic effects led to distinct #evolutionary patterns among the different skeletal components in #carnivorans. Read the full #BiologyLetters paper ‘Uncovering the mosaic evolution of the carnivoran skeletal system’ ow.ly/7VUT50QKJlk
Lovely study on the mosaic evolution of the carnivoran skeleton identifying the different influence of ecology and phylogeny on the evolution mode of the various skeletal componentby @Chris_J_Law @LHlusko @Tseng_ZJ royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rs…
Excited that our first @OMAC_evolution paper is out in @RSocPublishing Biology Letters! Here, we test for distinct modes of evolution among the cranial, appendicular and vertebral regions in extant carnivoran skeletons. 1/x 🧵 w/ @Tseng_ZJ & @LHlusko royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rs…
Our first @OMAC_evolution manuscript is out as a preprint! Here, we examine the mosaic evolution of the cranial, appendicular, and vertebral skeletal systems in carnivorans. With @LHlusko and @Tseng_ZJ biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
Excited to present our initial @OMAC_evolution work at 8 AM(!!) during the 1st session of the 1st day of ICVM! Come check it out! Session 4: The Rise and Reign of Mammals @Tseng_ZJ & @LHlusko #ICVM23 #ICVM2023
Turns out I won the SICB DVM Mentorship Award! Thanks to all my mentees past and present. @SICB_DCB_DVM @SICB_
Come check out my talk on carnivoran skeletal evolution today at 1:45pm room Tikahtnu C during the Evolutionary Biology (Technical Session 14)! #IMC13 @MammalMeetings @OMAC_evolution
.@UWBiology undergrads @JohannahRickman & @AbbyEBurtner's first (co)first author paper is now published in @iobjournal! Here, we (with Tate Linden & @SESantanaM) examined the shape and structural properties of squirrel humeri & femora. 🧵 1/x doi.org/10.1093/iob/ob…
So great to get the two research groups together! The combination of @OMAC_evolution @NSF and @ERC_Research @Tied2Teeth is a force to be reckoned with!
The T2T science team had a great meeting in Berkeley today with @Tseng_ZJ and the FAVE lab. Also got in a hello to the #Trex and an homage to the late F Clark Howell. @ERC_Research @CENIEH @marina__mpg @paleomariomm @IanETowle @LHlusko
A full skeleton of Sinopa major @NMNH! This 40ish million year old predator is a hyaenodont, an extinct clade of hypercarnivores before the rise of carnivorans
Excited that convevol v2.0 led by Will Brightly & Tristan Stayton has been released! Check out our preprint led by Dave Grossnickle to learn about our new method to measure convergent evolution 👇 cran.r-project.org/web/packages/c…
Our pre-print "A cautionary note on quantitative measures of phenotypic convergence" just released! Led by D Grossnickle & W Brightly, we found 2 major issues w/ current convergence methods & revised the popular C-measures to minimize these issues 🧵 1/n biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
