What a pleasure to visit the palaeontological collections of the National Museums of Kenya and bump into my friends Cecilia Kanyua and @martapina.bsky.social!
🔬🦴Thank you to all the NMK staff for your help facilitating my visit and study of fossil hyracoid teeth for my NWO Veni project! ❤️🙏

📻 🎧 Het was zo leuk om mee te werken aan het nieuwe seizoen van Zo Klonk Nederland van Vroege Vogels - BNNVARA! 🌳 🌿 Kom met ons mee op safari door tropisch Nederland in het Eoceen (47 miljoen jaar geleden) en luister naar de gekke en schattige beestje die we tegenkwamen 🐒 🦘🐎

Thank you @guillbi.bsky.social for hosting me at the fossil mammal collections at the @mnhn.fr in Paris and for showing me so many beautiful fossils of South American Native Ungulates 🤗 🦴

It was such fun to give a short talk at @naturalis.bsky.social colloquium and introduce myself to our diverse group of researchers! I am still very much in the data collection-part of my current VENI-fellowship, but hope to be able to share some preliminary results soon 🤓🍃🌍🦴🐂🦌

Ever wanted to infer a morphological or total-evidence phylogeny in BEAST2?
It’s long overdue, but we now have a tutorial on Taming the BEAST to talk you through the process 💻🌳⚙️
Thanks to Joëlle Barido-Sottani for helping me pull this together!

That’s a wrap! Thank you for hosting me at the Vertebrate Paleontology division of the Museo Argentino de Ciencias Naturales ❤️❤️❤️❤️ I studied many fossils and met even more lovely people, muchas gracias 🙏🏻 🇦🇷 🧉

Data collection for my VENI project on notoungulate and hyracoid evolution is going well! Visiting the vertebrate paleontology collections at the Museo de La Plata was a dream - mostly because I had three amazing student from
the Universidad Nacional de La Plata working with me! ✨ muchas gracias ❤️🧉

Today I had one of those pinch-me moments when I was allowed to practice my scanning skills using *real* dino bones out of @naturalis.bsky.social' Dino Lab 🦖🦕✨ Handling fossils that old.... will never get old 🙃

Thanks @salforduni.bsky.social for pointing me to this thoughtful & informative resource by @louise-psychol.bsky.social et al: Creating an inclusive approach to teaching and learning during Ramadan: A brief evidence-based guide for educators in the UK doi.org/10.25416/NTR... Check it out!🕌

New office! I've started my 3-year NWO (Dutch Research Council) Veni Fellowship at @naturalis.bsky.social 👩‍🏫 I'll be looking at millions of years of hyracoid and notoungulate evolution across major global climate change. 🌎 🦛 🐀 🌿 🌍 I'm excited to find out more about these diverse critters! 🦴
