Very cool visit of the Department of Engineering Sciences, University of Oxford, with old friend @jblugagne, now associate professor 👏🤩

We just had a great 37th congress of the French Society of Primatology organized by @palevoprim in Poitiers ❤️. Although it was punctuated by the deceased of J. Goodall 😢. See you all next time in Montpellier xx

When did our ancestors start to run? New musculoskeletal simulations of Lucy indicate that she was capable of running! Read the dispatch by @ArchaeoAshleigh here: doi.org/10.1016/j.cub.… and the paper by Bates et al. here: doi.org/10.1016/j.cub.…

Thrilled to share: out now in @Nature (!) & just in time for US Thanksgiving, the dinosaurian history of how your turkey does the twist. Fibular reduction enabled mid-drumstick mobility, unlocking extreme knee long-axis rotation in theropods 🍗🦖🧵 nature.com/articles/s4158…

A beautiful exhibition on which we worked with several colleagues from @le_CR2P in collaboration with @China_Light 🤗 🦖🌴🪸🦦

Such a perfect time we had at @JohnNyakatura’s lab for it’s 10 years anniversary ✨🎊 Always a pleasure to come back to Berlin and see you guys ❤️

So happy and honored to integrate this huge institution @CNRS . Historical day for us newcomers @RobinNinon1 @Desjonq 😃❤️

Very sad to learn of the passing of Frans de Waal 🥺. I had the pleasure to meet him a few years ago at the 33rd colloquium of the SFdP, where he gave us a wonderful lecture. My condolences to his loved ones and to the field of primatology for which he contributed so much ❤️🐒

New paper, hot off the press 🥳! Larger animals have longer limbs and are stronger-so why are the fastest runners of intermediate size? It's all to do with physical constraints on muscle, the prime mover. Collab w/ @cclemente4, @TaylorJMDick and P Bishop. doi.org/10.1038/s41467…

Absolutely thrilled to receive an NSF CAREER award! Looking forward to the next 5 years of field research and student training, in collaboration with @museumsofkenya and @turkanabasin, and course-based undergraduate research aimed at studying the evolution of human locomotion.

Super excited to announce the start of my SensiPad project: combining functional morphology and neurobiology to study somatosensory abilities in arboreal mammals 🐿️🦝🐒🌴. Funded by the Fyssen Foundation, collaborations with several zoos and institutions in France and Europe 🤩!!
