Dinosaur teeth are common fossils due to their durability and abundance. Dinosaurs lost and replaced teeth throughout their lifetimes. How quickly did dinosaur teeth grow? Art by Julius Csotonyi.

Amazing to see additional programs join Princeton over the 1:1 line! Go Vanderbilt and Cornell Plant Science!

Prof Corsetti is here to hood, note the unconventional tasseled hat!

I’m thrilled to share our latest paper in nature on how fossil biomolecules reveal an avian metabolism in the ancestral dinosaur! High metabolic rates leading to warm-bloodedness evolved independently in ornithodirans, marine reptiles, and mammals. 🤩 nature.com/articles/s4158…

If you are looking for a short video summary 📽️ of our recent paper on the evolution of dinosaur metabolic rates 🫁🦕🦖🐣, you're welcome to check out my Romer session talk at the 2020 meeting of the Society of Vertebrate Paleontology (now online): youtube.com/watch?v=qndKZK…

710 days ago, I successfully defended my PhD dissertation. 695 days ago, I, along with Y a r a • يارا • Hectic Skeleton, reported our PhD advisor, Robert Reisz, for bullying and harassment. Today, we are sharing our story. medium.com/@bmgee/make-me… #FossilFriday #AcademicTwitter #paleontology

Excited for my first ever GSA! #GSA2022 Giving a talk on Monday afternoon about the tooth cycle and replacement pattern in Ichthyornis. Check out Mile High Ballroom 4C! 🤩

I am super happy to finally see this out! This review covers everything a palaeontologist ought to need to know about development and evolution of #echinoderm skeletons, as well as some general concepts from #developmentalbiology. ow.ly/NU0w50Luxm3

Very fun experience ☺️ Check out the Chinese version on Natural History Museum of L.A. County ‘s YouTube channel too!

😆😆😆 Got to see this in a theater!

Just a casual day USC Molecular Imaging Center scanning piece of braincase of Thomas T.Rex #Dinasour from Natural History Museum of L.A. County #Trex #research unique opportunity to dwell depper into the structure with help of CT imaging and visualizing it with #VGStudio #volumegraphics

It turns out...Komodo dragons have iron-coated teeth! nature.com/articles/s4155… Their serrations and tips pop into the mouth with an orange hue. Using different techniques, we show that these iconic lizards have special iron-rich coatings on each tooth, keeping them razor sharp!

Just heard that the legendary vertebrate paleontologist Prof. Dong, Zhiming (1937-2024) passed away at age 87. 😢 R.I.P.
