I have finally published the work I did for my masters thesis at @BristolPalaeo! Give it a read if you are interested in kangaroos, finite element analysis, or a bit of both! https://t.co/rXGDMybpwt

Using finite element analysis on the astragali of macropodine and sthenurine kangaroos we investigate how stresses experienced by kangaroos of different hypothesized/known locomotion compare under...

Sir David Attenborough visited our School of Anatomy in June to speak with our expert Earth Scientists for his upcoming documentary 🦴🌊 Be sure to tune in and watch on @BBCiPlayer when the show airs early next year 👀 @UoBEarthScience Photo courtesy of the BBC 📷

Enjoy this Suchomimus 3D model I generated from the replica in Kenosha, WI. It certainly wasn’t an easy endeavor. I think the platinum finish suits it. #FossilFriday

New @thePeerJ publication from my PhD work: https://t.co/V6LPnJsuYF.
@jemilyr and I evaluated the influence of CT/surface scans on finite element data using a variety of reptile skulls. 🐊🦎🐢

Finite element analysis (FEA) is a commonly used application in biomechanical studies of both extant and fossil taxa to assess stress and strain in solid structures such as bone. FEA can be performed...

I scanned this Monolophosaurus skull at Milwaukee Public Museum (@MKEPublicMuseum) a year ago and I’ve recently finished editing it. Seeing the skeleton is one of my earliest dinosaur-related memories and it’s a cool feeling being able to research it as an adult. #fossilfriday

New study describes three main divisions of the T. rex rostral neurovascular system, with discussion on evolution, facial sensitivity, and the question of whether theropods had lips. Authors: Florian Bouabdellah, Emily Lessner, and Julien Benoit Link👉 https://t.co/PC1oknlCzW

Our animatronic T. rex is getting into the Christmas spirit. It's been kitted out in its very own theropod-size seasonal sweater, made from 100% recycled materials, thanks to @britishxmas. Get your claws on your own version: https://t.co/p02sVFP2nI

For #FossilFriday, have a glance at the Dilophosaurus 3D model that I generated from surface scanning at the @sciencemuseummn a while back. I imagine Prince would be pleased with my color palette choice.

I have not tweeted in ages. Here are the dinosaur statues at Crystal Palace Park in London. It was a great pleasure seeing them in person.

Our #tyrannosaur feeding paper has been officially published in @AnatRecord! Also, this is my first tweet. What thrilling times I’m living in.
