I am truly honored and humbled… and still can’t quite believe it! This paper was a HUGE team effort born and bred in @UWBiology’s superb paleo group. Shout out to @HZMFulghum, @_megwhit_, @PaleoZoek, @gpwilson11, Dave Grossnickle and Will Brightly ❤️

Laura MacLatchy, @mcnulty_lab, and I summarized the results of our findings in this piece @ConversationUS - "Wooded grasslands flourished in Africa 21 million years ago – new research forces a rethink of ape evolution" theconversation.com/wooded-grassla…
