Huge congrats to @ougeosciences graduate student Kiera Crowley (Wright lab) and colleagues on publishing a major taxonomic revision of Paleocene gastropods!
🦴 C is for Crinoid! 🌊 Collection Manager Lyndsey Farrar just brought out one of our biggest fossil crinoids for today’s Alphabet Series — an incredible animal that lived anchored to the seafloor over 160 million years ago 👀 #alphabetseries #history #fossils #science #museums
Congratulations to @ougeosciences graduate student Kiera Crowley (Wright lab) and colleagues on their new publication examining niche evolution in gastropods across the K-Pg extinction! cambridge.org/core/journals/…

🦇 One week until Rodrigo Medellín lands at the Sam Noble Museum! Hear from The Bat Man of Mexico in a FREE public talk on bats, biodiversity, and tequila. 📅 One week left to mark your calendar! #mexico #batman #markcalendar #thebatman #superhero #museums #bat
I'll have more info when I get back from fieldwork but I'll be recruiting 2 graduate students to begin in 2026 (1 PhD, 1 MS). My lab investigates macroevolutionary dynamics using phylogenetic methods & the fossil record. Please share w/ students having strong research interests!
💧 Steel. Sludge. Sparkle. 💧 Behind your faucet is an untold story of design, grit & innovation. In 2 weeks, @SamNobleMuseum’s State of Water opens—revealing the overlooked beauty & urgency of water systems we rely on every day. #2weeks #watersystems #waterscape #innovation
🌍 1 year ago, Sam Noble Museum paleontologists got a $621K NSF grant to study Earth’s first mass extinction. Their work on Anticosti Island is giving us new clues into past climate change—and today’s biodiversity crisis. #massextinction #earth #climatechange #biodiversitycrisis
🦖 Oklahoma’s very own dino is having a day! Big thanks to @VisitNorman for teaming up with us to share the dino-sized excitement of Aquilops Day — happening July 19, 10AM–2PM! #livemusic #snowcones #museums #free #universal #jurassicworld #dinosaurs
#ICYMI Director Doug Jones has shepherded the Florida Museum of Natural History through exponential growth for several decades. Now after 29 years, he is rejoining the faculty as curator of the invertebrate paleontology collection. 🦪 About his career: floridamuseum.ufl.edu/science/dougla…
Celebrating 2 years since @_Lynds3_ joined our team at the Sam Noble Oklahoma Museum of Natural History!
The Department of Invertebrate Paleontology at the @SamNobleMuseum is thrilled to introduce @_Lynds3_ as our new Collections Manager! Lyndsey will be working with myself and fellow IP curator @LenaDoesScience to care for >1 million specimens in our collections! Welcome Lyndsey!
🌍 Ordovician Mass Extinction: 445 million years ago, glaciers dropped sea levels by 500+ feet, wiping out 85% of species. ❄️ Gone: 🔷 reef corals, 🦑 trilobites, and more. See some of these lost creatures in our Hall of Ancient Life! #Science #Paleoclimate #SamNobleMuseum
Fossils as fireworks? Streptelasma superba has features that evoke that explosive, radiating beauty! While you won't find one that literally blew up, the intricate and sometimes branching patterns of these ancient marine invertebrates do give off a "fireworks" vibe! #FossilFriday
A helpful reading guide to expand your TBR – and your imagination – this #Juneteenth and beyond!
Ancient catastrophes could provide keys to climate future "The future is what we put in it now," Wright said. “We can make comparisons with what we know has happened...and use our knowledge of history as a baseline for what could happen in the future." normantranscript.com/news/ancient-c…

New funding in Norman could help scientists understand how to preserve biodiversity in a world that has alarming similarities to one mass extinction in particular.
New paper! "Phylogeny and macroevolution of a “dead clade walking”: a systematic revision of the Paragaricocrinidae (Crinoidea)" cambridge.org/core/journals/…
Dozens of scientists & collection experts collaborated to identify opportunities to better utilize data stored in natural history collections in order to support and inform the broader scientific community working on pandemic preparedness. Story + paper: floridamuseum.ufl.edu/science/paper-…
Very excited to have Melanie Hopkins, trilobite paleontologist extraordinaire and Curator & Chair of Paleontology at the @AMNH, and her student Gabe visit our collections here at the @SamNobleMuseum! #TrilobiteTuesday
Congratulations to OU Paleobiology graduate students Kiera Crowley (Wright lab) and Nicolas Bell (Cole lab) for successfully defending their graduate research proposals to their committees this week! Well done!
