@SpicherGael @JURASSICAMuseum Congrats Gaël on completing your MSc! Can’t wait to start this cool project with you

🎓 Today, I officially completed my master's at the University of Bonn! One chapter closes, and a new journey begins. This October, I'll start my PhD at @JurassicaMuseum, working on Thalassochelydian turtles. 🐢 Excited to dive into new scientific challenges! #Paleontology #PhD

🎉📚 We're excited to have @SpicherGael joining us to start his #PhD with our turtle specialist @FossilTurtles - focusing on Thalassochelydian turtles, an extinct clade of marine turtles 🐢
