This #FossilFriday is the partial skull of an Itchyosaur displayed Geoscience Australia. Sadly, this marks the end of my time here as the collections assistant, but the beginning of my PhD career at ANU.

What a whale of a task! Well done @MatthewRMcCurry 🐳🐬

Super happy to share the first publication out of my PhD. Cool little tooth, cool little story! doi.org/10.1080/031155… PM me for a full copy!

Feel free to check out this AMRI blog about my first publication!

“We believe our study is the first in Australia to use x-rays to study the gut contents of a prehistoric marine reptile," says PhD candidate Joshua White from PhysicsANU and AMRI. Find out more the diet of this 2.5m sea creature, AKA Eric: science.anu.edu.au/news-events/ne…

What did the most complete, opalised vertebrate fossil in Australia eat? PhD candidate Joshua White, PhysicsANU & AMRI, tells us how cutting edge technology was used to reconstruct Eric the plesiosaur's diet Australian Museum. 👉australian.museum/blog/amri-news…

In case you missed my first pub talk last month, here's your chance to watch some great sci-comm by various local researchers. I got the chance to talk about my one-sided realtionship with Eric, the opalised plesiosaur 🦕🦖 youtube.com/watch?v=9flKma…

A quick visit to the Natural History Museum LA before returning home after a fun week of presentations, discussions and everything inbetween #2023SVP

Had a blast CAVEPS Palaeo sharing my PhD progress. Cheers Lachlan Hart for the photo.

Another great example of Zev Landes work! I had the honour of geting myself illustrated talking about my latest research at the 2023 CAVEPS Palaeo conference.
