For today‘s #FossilFriday, we celebrate the start of our collaboration @naturmusee with Urweltmuseum Geoskop during their excavation in the latest Carboniferous of Rhineland-Palatinate. Never seen so many myriapod fossils before!

For today‘s #FossilFriday, meet our two new rock stars from the Cretaceous of Japan, starfish Coulonia hokahira and brittle star Ophiozonella tumidasquama. Happy to have contributed to this exciting study available at doi.org/10.2517/PR2200… @naturmusee

Special #FossilFriday treat: remember the Jurassic vampire squids we discovered in SW-Luxembourg during our #LostOceanDigging one year ago? Their fossil ink was used for a stunning piece of art by Natalia Slioutova-Hansen, currently on display @naturmusee

Revisited the Transition Now exhibition at #ellergronn during the pleasant event “En Daag an der Natur”. Happy to have contributed to this inspiring exhibition. The basement features @naturmusée fossils from the Minette area and an ichthyosaur carcass in an extraordinary setting.

@Davey_F_Wright Stay safe!

😬😱

Rainbow geology in the Triassic of #Luxembourg. Currently prospecting terrestrial to brackish deposits, looking for tetrapod remains. @naturmusee

@Davey_F_Wright Congrats! I’d be more than happy to contribute to some of your 30 next papers ;)

I'm always looking for reasons to celebrate & I realized my 30th paper has been accepted for publication, which feels like a milestone--even more so given how challenging the last few years have been. Pretty sure I can get another 30 if I publish projects already in my backlog 😅

いや〜カッコいい。

We had a blast at today‘s LuxCon, talking about the science of sea monsters. Planet Earth is, in fact, home to creatures that challenge the wildest imagination, hiding in plain sight. Long live the cross-pollination between research and creativity! @naturmusee #luxcon #fandom

FossilFriday @naturmusee Looks like freshly washed on the beach: fantastic fossils of a new brittle-star species from the Pliocene of Japan. Grateful to have been able to contribute to this exciting study doi.org/10.2517/PR2200… #FossilFriday #brittlestars

@CONICETDialoga Happy and honoured to have contributed to the study of this exciting discovery. @naturmusee #FossilFriday

🔵Un equipo de científicos y científicas del CONICET halló en la cuenca neuquina un fósil articulado de una estrella frágil que vivió en los mares sudamericanos hace unos 193 millones de años. #CienciaArgentina conicet.gov.ar/descubren-en-n…

After 183 Million years in the underground, the ink of an extinct squid excavated during our #LostOceanDigging in SW-Luxembourg was transformed into a first piece of art. More to come! @naturmusee instagram.com/p/Co2-Nghtmn4/…

Beyond excited that our brittle-star photo made it on the cover of Geology! Check out our paper on early clade evolution in the Paleozoic deep sea: pubs.geoscienceworld.org/gsa/geology/ar… @Musée national d'histoire naturelle Luxembourg - natur musée #brittlestars

Happy and proud to have contributed to a study on brittle-star microfossils from a drill core from Chiba, Japan, in collaboration with pupils of the „Gunma Prefectural Ota Girls‘ High School Earth Science Research Club“. #WomenInScience #STEMeducation @naturmusee

Thank you 10TONS! @naturmusee

Remember our #LostOceanDigging in Bascharage, #Luxembourg, earlier this year? Some of the fish fossils just returned from preparation @naturmusee. Enjoy those Jurassic fishy faces!

One of the two new species of #fossil elcanid grasshoppers from the Lower Jurassic of Luxembourg just published in Kentiana with Sam W. Heads and Jacob Tamarri from @UofIllinois, and the moment of discovery by the namesake person at the Sanem prison construction site @naturmusee

A little sour… 😂🦖🦕 instagram.com/p/Cjn5mYnt8tZ/…
