Very well done, Robin!!! 🥳

Robin Saulnier Masson@robinslnr.bsky.social · last mo.

🚨Excited to share my first PhD paper, out in Journal of Morphology 🐸 With @kengelkes.bsky.social, we studied the ontogeny and homology of anuran forelimb muscles across 11 species, resolving long-standing inconsistencies in their nomenclature and homology. First step of many! doi.org/10.1002/jmor...

The application deadline for the #Curator (m/f/d) of #Ornithology position at @leibnizlib.bsky.social in Hamburg has been extended to 30 August 2026. 🐦🦉🦅🪶🥚 More details and apply here: 8101202752.karriereportal.cloud/job/2026-18-.... Please share.

New paper! 🧪 We found substantial morphological variation in Seychelles bronze geckos among islands, likely outweighing regional biogeographic patterns observed in other herpetofauna. Great collaboration with @lib-morpholab.bsky.social @nhm-london.bsky.social #islands #geckos 🦎🏝️🇸🇨

JOB ALERT! Come work with us as a PhD student for 4 years if you are interested in biodiversity monitoring, technology development, insects and agriculture.

Last week: #SEH2025 in Bonn ! I gave my very first talk, about the Homology of the shoulder joint and forelimb muscles #anura. I hope to submit the paper later this year, so stay tuned 😉 Many thanks to the organisers of this congress ! #SEH2025 #herpetology #anura #amphibian #frog #toad

Alina from Rostock University is visiting to acquire data for her bachelor thesis. She uses #histology to study skin development and metamorphic rearrangement across different #tadpole stages in a collaborative project with @benjaminnaumann.bsky.social 🐸

Playing with propagation-based phase contrast in #microCT scans to visualize soft tissue without contrast staining in jumping #spiders 🕷️🕷️🕷️ Sure no great image quality achieved, but good enough to measure internal structures of the eyes with @jadethurlow.bsky.social & @mherberstein.bsky.social
