The last remaining chapter of my thesis is finally published! We investigated the peculiar morphology of the pectoral girdle of two clades of aquatic crocs: Thalattosuchia & Dyrosauridae 🐊 doi.org/10.1002/ar.255… Prof. Valentin Fischer Dr. Michela Johnson Jouve Stéphane
Last paper about 🌲Pinus belgica 🎄 with Prof. Valentin Fischer and Cyrille Prestianni popups.uliege.be/1374-8505/inde…
Excited to see our study on the evolution of Mesozoic marine reptiles across the Triassic-Jurassic boundary—featuring fossils from the iconic Marine Reptile Gallery—and recently published in Evolution Journal, highlighted in the News section of the Natural History Museum website! 🤩
Two new F.R.S.-FNRS funded PhD students in the lab: Melvin Vankelst will be working on the biomechanical performances of Eocene-Oligocene carnivorous mammals and Alexis Rastier - Sigillaria 🌴 will be investigating the latest Devonian turnovers in plant communities!
Really proud to have finally submitted my Ph.D. manuscript 🥳 I would like to thanks everyone who helped during this adventure, especially Prof. Valentin Fischer, Dr Tom Stubbs and Torsten Scheyer for their brilliant supervision!
Open full-time academic position on biomimicry Université de Liège ! Details here: uliege.be/upload/docs/ap…

Really happy to have passed my PhD viva last Friday! 🎉 I would like to warmly thanks Prof. Valentin Fischer, Dr Tom Stubbs, Torsten Scheyer, Denis Baurain, members of my jury and all great researchers that have helped during these 4 years. It was a fantastic journey in the Mesozoic seas!
New paper out in Communications Biology lead by Raia's Lab showing that rapid cortical expansion in the prefrontal region took place early on during the evolution of primates 🐵🧠 nature.com/articles/s4200…
New paper out today where we test the 150-year-old hypothesis that a unique jaw torus seen in Nimravus is an adaptation to resist biting forces using FEA🦁🔪 our results highlight some functional advantage of the torus, which are amplified at larger gape👀 royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rs…
