Proud to see this out!👇Check out our new paper on #Phanerozoic rock-diversity relationship using highly integrated fossil and geological records of #GBDB. Unfossiliferous strata are non-negligible. @Calathium @kiessl #PaleoDB cambridge.org/core/journals/…

What can ecological neutral theory tell us about fossil record biases? 🦎📈 Check out our new paper which brings together theoretical ecologists (Sam Thompson, @JRosindell) and paleobiologists (myself, @ButlerLabBham & @rogerclose) to find out more! 🔗: nature.com/articles/s41559-0…

Using marine invertebrates occ data from the PBDB, our study may not solve the ultimate causes of the Cambrian radiation, but did confirm that a rapid increase in beta diversity during this critical period not only occurred at community levels but also at biogeographic scales.

Jason @Calathium made this video out of one of our field trip recordings. Very beautiful Siberia view in it! Check it out!
"You're a paleontologist? So you work on dinosaurs? Like Ross from Friends? " Took only 10s to complete the column on my paleontological stereotypes bingo 😁🦕🦖

Cool!
New #preprint ❤️! Survivorship curves overestimate extinction risk of long-living taxa, making testing of Van Valen's "evolutionary law" potentially problematic! #Palaeontology #Ecology arxiv.org/abs/1907.02033

Really like "You". Twisted but intriguing. Recommend it!
Here are some Netflix originals that are worth checking out

First time I dabble in Ordovician microbialites. It's always fun working with Jason @Calathium
