🚨Another little promotional piece, this time from our collaborators in Utah. I hope this blog post will help, even in a small way, to raise awareness among Utahns about the fantastic Cambrian paleontological archive their state holds. @NHMU @BLMUtah nhmu.utah.edu/articles/2024/…

JOB! The Division of Paleontology at the @AMNH seeks an Assistant Curator of Invertebrate Paleontology to start on or after 1st July 2025. For more information see the website: careers.amnh.org/postings/4301

@ArnaudDyevre I imagine that working in a lab where colleagues were fired also contributed to low job satisfaction.

While scientists were more productive, they reported lower job satisfaction, mostly because their skills were under-utilized and because their tasks were more repetitive after the AI.

I just read the paper in full; it is even more spectacular than I initially thought. A short thread about the results and their significance.

I´m excited to announce that we have a venue and dates for the next International Congress on Invertebrate Morphology (ICIM-6)! All invertebrate lovers, let's meet in 🇨🇱 next year from August 10th to 14th. 👇👇

Thrilled to see my friend Isabel Desgagné-Penix in this group of esteemed scientists. She’s a force of brilliance, daring & funnnnny. #Innu #FirstNations #BioChemistry #Scholar

Group Leader position available! Come join us. Fantastic place to do groundbreaking research!

@baumlab LaTeX for typesetting documents. Lots of on-line tutorials available. We use overleaf.com/login

Tips, tricks, content for effective lab writing retreats, please! We're going on our 1st lab writing retreat and I'd love to hear what worked well for yours. Resources on how to improve scientific writing are especially welcome. Thanks science peeps!

Delighted to share our new perspective article @JEvBio: rising evidence suggests unexpectedly robust link btw micro- and macroevolution. It challenges past views of evolution and calls for interdisciplinary research. #Evolution #EvoDevo #Paleontology 1/7 doi.org/10.1093/jeb/vo…

Side-resting evolved many times in #bivalves . Within some species individuals lie indifferently on either their right or left (randomly pleurothetic), whereas in others they lie consistently on one side (left-pleurothetic or right-pleurothetic). academic.oup.com/mollus/article…

I am very happy to announce that our work on hemichordate gene expression and chromatin accessibility dynamics is now published on Nature Ecology and Evolution! nature.com/articles/s4155…

… spare a thought for the red-lipped batfish. @redlipblenny theguardian.com/environment/co…

🪸🐟Our new paper is out in @ConLetters this week. In it, we review and discuss in a broader context one of the most fundamental paradigms in reef management and conservation—the parrotfish paradigm: doi.org/10.1111/conl.1… with @ANAMLHZ
