Brain, guts, and circulatory system of a Cambrian arthropod larva! The most amazingly preserved fossil I have ever seen. https://t.co/YGnHMPNERI Lucky to have been a part of this project led by Martin Smith and Emma Long. @PalaeoSmith @DurUniEarthSci @durham_uni

Super excited to hear all about @CambrianOddity talk all about his work @DurhamEarthSci on Cambriab panarthopods for Cambridge Palaeo Journal Club @CamZoology @EarthSciCam

Dissecting the timing of ecdysozoan evolutionary origins, @CambrianOddity explores what the exceptional fossil record has to say #ipc6 @DurUniEarthSci

Dear #IPC6 organisers, take note that although the meeting has been mostly great, there is a massive issue with diversity and inclusion practices. No less the phrase “the other gender” when addressing delegates during the conference diner :( we have to do better!!!

Snapshots from #Ediacaran #Cambrian fieldwork in the Mackenzie Mountains 🇨🇦, with team @DurUniEarthSci @LeverhulmeTrust & @UCR_EP_Sci: @CambrianOddity, @PalaeoSmith, Alex Kovalick. Hard field season, but worth it for exciting fossils.

Fossil hunting in one of the most amazing and remote places! Mackenzie mountains, NWT, Canada @DurUniEarthSci #FossilFriday

We found unpublished material on stem-group bird eggs!

Neurotransmitter GABA seems to make animals sleepy across the board. Dopamine makes many, including flatworms, alert but makes Hydra sleepy. Better sampling of animal tree would be nice. see https://t.co/pzF0NIiJs6

Pterosaurs, like birds, regurgitate indigestible prey: https://t.co/3UmZU0iGD4

Time to dust off the passports! Check out all the details for this year's PalAss Annual Meeting in Cork from July 18 - 24 here: https://t.co/SwMydOIdwK And yes we are planning an in-person meeting! 1/3

How we handle inapplicable data can fundamentally change evolutionary interpretations. Our example re. Ecdysozoan origins is now typeset: https://t.co/Eiim66wNEO

🚨Are 'weird wonders' like Anomalocaris and Opabinia informative on the arthropod stem or evolutionary 'dead ends'?🚨 Check out our #PalAss21 talk in the final session on Monday to find out! @PalaeoSmith @DurUniEarthSci

Arguably the centerpiece of @ROMtoronto #DawnofLife's #OntarioFossils display is this mind blowing faunal slab from the #Ordovician Kirkfield Formation, brimming with #crinoids, #cystoids, #trilobites, and others. I'll be sharing more on this site at #PalAss21 this weekend.
