#FossilFriday For our first social media posts, we highlight the iconic MB.Av.1010: a complete fossil of Archaeopteryx siemensii; a Late Jurassic species thought to be transitional between theropod dinosaurs & birds.

On display at the Berlin Natural History Museum.

Call for postdocs with an interest in paleoherpetology! Get in touch if you want to discuss funding opportunities to work with me at the Institut Català de Paleontologia Miquel Crusafont under the Juan de la Cierva, Beatriu de Pinós or Marie Skłodowska-Curie postdoctoral scheme 🦎🐸🐍 #paleontology

I created this starter pack for people interested the study of amphibians and reptiles (Palaeoherpetology/Paleoherpetology). Feel free to nominate other accounts or request inclusion of your own profile, I'll be growing the list until reaching the maximum allowed (150 profiles)!

#Education resource! Over the years I created this collection of colored skull #3Dmodels for teaching. They're available to download on MorphoSource & to view on Sketchfab. Because of recent changes to Sketchfab, I migrated them to my website: www.graysvertebrateanatomy.com/work/colorso... (1/3)

Hi, everyone, just wanted to introduce myself. Here I'll be sharing news about my own scientific publications dealing with the description of new #fossils of Jurassic-Pleistocene #reptiles (mostly #lizards) and #amphibians, broadscale macroevolutionary studies, or Permian and Triassic #vertebrates!
