Tonight my first time at pint of science in a perfectly fitting location, @ lille Brauerei Kiel. Topics from social sciences (discrimination during hiring process against union members) to sacred lost rivers in India. #pint23 #pint_de Pint of Science World

I will also be joining the nightsky.... @dinodietologist.bsky.social Looking forward to seeing you there! #paleontology #microwear #teeth #dentalmorphology #dietreconstruction

Just out for #FossilFriday !🦕🌿New research employing DMTA on ornithopods reveals shifts in dental microwear during the Cretaceous. Phytolith-rich angiosperms may be the key to these changes. #DinosaurDiet #Evolution #Paleontology #microwear onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…

論文出ました。鳥脚類の歯のマイクロウェアから食性の変化を探って研究です。

Happy international women's day! My university is celebrating with the women's talk marathon, where female scientists from all disciplines present themselves and their research. I was happy to be part of it talking about teeth 🦷 #InternationalWomensDay #caukiel #WomenInScience

Collection visit Universität Halle (inaktiv) in the Zentralmagazin Naturwissenschaftlicher Sammlungen for my master student's project! Had such a warm welcome, great staff and exciting material to work with! Also saw the really cool, historic zoology collection! #domestication #microwear #teeth

Just out! An amazing collaboration with 久保　麦野 from GSFS, UTokyo ! Mandible microwear texture analysis of crickets raised on diets of different abrasiveness reveals universality of diet-induced wear | Interface Focus royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rs…

Sometimes I wonder and worry about the state of academic publishing....🤡 See the last sentence: "God created the most perfect computer: the DNA." This is from a Nature Portfolio journal. #academia #publishorperish #pseudoscience nature.com/articles/s4159…

🐀🦷Dental microwear patterns in rats vary by tooth position and bite force. As rats mature, M3 becomes more engaged in chewing w/bite force 1.4x higher than M1. Important to use fully occluded teeth in dietary reconstructions By Dr Daniela E Winkler, Prof. Christine Böhmer et al: doi.org/10.1002/ar.255…

New paper out! (Part 3) Another great collaboration with 久保　麦野, Dr Daniela E Winkler, and my lab students! We used tooth microwear—a paleontology method—to reveal dietary differences in the Amami rabbit and Ryukyu long-haired rat! Beautiful illustration by Kanon Tanaka_田中花音_博物マニア6月7.8日 — thank

Just out! In this great collaboration with Emanuel Tschopp (FU Berlin), Andre Saleiro (University NOVA Lisbon) and partners from LIB Hamburg, we reconstruct niche partitioning in three Jurassic sauropod faunas using dental microwear texture analysis. rdcu.be/ewN7L

Dental microwear texture analysis reveals behavioural, ecological and habitat signals in Late Jurassic sauropod dinosaur faunas - nature.com/articles/s4155…

New paper on dental microwear in #sauropods - and a must read. Confirms niche partitioning, migratory behaviour in some, and other goodies. Love to see #Rapetosaurus included in future studies (I've been thinking about that species a lot recently). nature.com/articles/s4155…

News podcast: Weston Whitaker Stanford University and Novome Biotechnologies on kidney stones; Johannes Kohl The Francis Crick Institute on mice science; Dr Daniela E Winkler at Kiel University on dinosaur teeth; AntGrip The University of Edinburgh, supported by UK Research and Innovation; and Keith Shine Uni of Reading on clouds. thenakedscientists.com/podcasts/naked…

I am thrilled that our latest study was featured with "The Naked Scientist". Tube in to learn about dinosaur 🦕 diets!

I am very happy to announce that I am starting a new position as Interim Professor (German: "Vertretungsprofessorin") at the University of Bonn! This is an excellent opportunity to broaden my teaching skills and develop a research focus on paleobiology of tetrapods.
