Ever wondered why the tropics have so many shiny bird species? In our new paper, led by Chad Eliason, we show that it is likely bc they move there! Lots of other cool stuff in here too, including iridescence at the base of avian family tree nature.com/articles/s4155…

Jeremy has done an awesome project in ME287 and has now published a cool paper on automated model discovery for textile structures and the unique mechanical signature of warp knitted fabrics: biorxiv.org/content/10.110… U.S. National Science Foundation #CMMI #AutomatedModelDiscovery

NEW ZEALAND PICKLE SLUG! 🥒 One of the coolest invertebrates living in the wet forests of New Zealand are the impressive Leaf-veined Slugs! 🌳 They are active on wet nights, where they slide their pickle-body around on trees and leaves to feed on algae! 🌿 To say I was excited

How do big fish control fluid flow when #filterfeeding? Many thanks to HFSP for funding our work on this topic and fsbi for Amar SV’s trip back to lovely Trinity College Dublin. We had a ball working with Tim Persoons Trinity Engineering…and introducing his flume to stinky fish bits

Thanks to CityU Hong Kong and SEB for picking up the stories on Amar SV and Dr. Viktoriia Kamska's nice studies on #structuralcolor. Always fun working with our pal Michael Blumer Med. Uni. Innsbruck and other elasmophiles! cityu.edu.hk/research/stori… eurekalert.org/news-releases/…

Tomorrow morning at #MM24 in Cleveland I’ll be talking about this, bioinspiration, VR, and the wonders of combining microscopy and nature. 9am Thursday, Room 22

🚨New paper in Science Magazine! We reviewed the past, present, and future #ecological roles of #sharks in a changing #ocean, and what effective #restoration might look like 🦈Grateful to be part of this amazing team led by Simon Dedman & Jerry Moxley, Ph.D 🔗doi.org/10.1126/scienc…

Excited to share this work with Mario Vallejo-Marin on buzz-pollination biomechanics. We show that flower biting behaviour is an effective strategy to transfer vibrations of the thorax to the flower via the head! 🐝💐 Find out more here: cell.com/current-biolog…

Visualizing Science! I'm holding a series of free, online workshops, thanks to Johns Hopkins University. All are welcome! I plan to have fun with Danielle VanBrabant, Damond Kyllo, and Amey Zhang to introduce visualization topics and challenges. No art experience is necessary.

First author paper is out, ft. some pretty uCT scans I've been sitting on! Excited to see this one through with our team. Where do "odontodes" come from? What are they made of? How do they develop and regenerate in #sharks? #teeth #denticles #odontodes #evodevo
