Including these glass lizards, several distantly related ‘worm lizards’ have skin bone plates covering their bodies. We just found that these evolved independently. For the full story: doi.org/10.64628/AA.4m75kv59…

So proud of this incredible team and all we accomplished this year!
We’re looking for postdocs to explore evo-devo, organ regeneration, extreme physiology, non-traditional animals, and
SUPERMAN 🦸♂️!
Please RT.

Part of my work from my Master’s with @tegillis is now published by @CompBiochPhys! In this work, we were looking into how thyroid hormones impact the heart regeneration process in zebrafish.

What happened in this #platypus? 😕 Encapsulated, ~1cm radio-dense structures- what are they? That is the question explored in a new paper from Henrik Lauridsen @PeterRMoeller and coauthors (of whom I was lucky to be one) journals.plos.org/plosone/ar… 1/7

New paper out today in @iobopen. Just in time for Amy Lagorio’s talk at @anatomyorg this afternoon! We tried to capture the joys of teaching imaging approaches to a group of students and faculty during Covid. This stuff takes a village. @AnatomyMizzou

Oh, and I suppose I should have said before here, that I have moved from @ZoophysiologyAU to @Husdyrforskning, where I have started a tenure track position in #Anatomy and #Pathophysiology. 5/4. Thank you to everyone who made my time there and my new position possible.

🐔 have keel bones. They are often (~80% of laying birds) fractured by the end of hens' lives. I am really excited that @DFF_raad have decided to fund a project looking at how these fractures relate to the nervous and cardiorespiratory systems and tell us about birds' pain . 1/4

Very proud to be part of this collaboration with @akelvinlab, which was led by our talented post-doc Dr Sarah Rouhana & some outstanding graduate students @magiefrancis & @CardiacKathy.
We need more of these types collaborations to solve our most pressing health problems.
