A retweet of our paper on deuterostome origins that came out this week. How can you link these monsters together in a single evolutionary framework? Short answer: with a lot of head scratching and whisky. Long answer: check out the paper. https://t.co/dRbaP9ZlO9

Great coverage of and 's new paper on the licentious habits of trilobites. Choice passages: "shroud of mystery," "flexible fingerlike," "shriveled limbs," "spiny backside." Will the scandal never end?

Forgot to add, the program goes live at 11am. If you want a teaser about some of the cool fossils we'll be talking about, check out this blog post I wrote a few years ago (art by ):

The Burgess Shale is known for the exceptional preservation of half-a-billion year old invertebrates which give unique insights into early animal evolution. What can be harder to study are the whole communities in which those animals lived; these studies are time/effort intensive

More evolutionary insights from the a new species of Mollisonia described by Aria and curator J-B. Caron. I remember seeing some of these specimens before they'd been prepared, absolutely unreal levels of appendage details revealed!

A nice write up by on the new Burgess discovery by Joe Moysiuk and JB Caron . I like how the discovery of is put into the winder context of marine ecosystems during the Cambrian (underscored by ).

Awesome new paper by Joe Moysiuk and JB Caron describing the "spaceship" radiodontan from the I particularly like the discussion of feeding ecology, supported by beautiful plates of the appendages/mouth: https://t.co/g7hQl8rqFX

I love museum mounts where they peel away layers like this one of a black caiman. I think it really helps put the skeleton in life-context more clearly for visitors, and its about as close as most people will ever get to dissecting some pretty awesome animals

I had a great time at over the last couple of days, and got to spend some time at the California Academy of Sciences. Incredible design for galleries and displays, I could have spent another whole day in the aquarium alone.
