Apply for a few waiver with @tscourses.bsky.social before 10 July. So much to learn, so little time! #science #learning #academia
We know that access to training is not always easy.
We have an #update on the timing of #EAVP2027! Due to an unexpected issue, the EAVP 2027 has to be postponed to 12-16 July 2027 (and not the dates commented below).
Exciting news coming out of the AGM: We are delighted to announce that the 2027 European Association of Vertebrate Palaeontologists (EAVP) Annual Meeting will be held in Vienna, Austria! www.evomorg.org
Thank you to all who came to my talk at #EAVP2026 to find out more about our latest research on #Pleistocene #hyena denning & #cannibalism in #Asia: Yai Ruak #cave, Peninsular #Thailand 🦴
Resolving the “ontogeny problem” in vertebrate paleontology, recently published in Paleobiology, by @jgn-paleo.bsky.social - this is a *must read*, esp. for those in the archosaur realm www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

#EAVP2026 in Vilnius, Lithuania, has been a super enjoyable meeting in a beautiful city. My first EAVP in a decade but I hope to be in Vienna next year. Huge thanks to @darjadankina.bsky.social & all the @eavpalaeo.bsky.social organisers who did an amazing job.
Check out the work of the graduate students and postdocs from our Paleobiology Research Group at @eavpalaeo.bsky.social 2026 in Vilnius 🇱🇹👇
🦘 How big is too big to hop? Megan Jones explores the biomechanical limits of hopping in the hindlimbs of giant extinct kangaroos #eavp2026 #Palaeontology #Biomechanics
Rémi Lefebvre explores biomechanical trends in the thoracolumbar vertebrae of the Nile #crocodile (Crocodylus niloticus🐊), revealing how the spine adapts through early development. #EAVP2026 #Palaeontology #Biomechanics
#EAVP2026 afternoon continues with methods and innovation: dental microwear, cartilage volume, crocodilian biomechanics, extinct kangaroo hopping, thalattosuchian neurosensory evolution and synchrotron data. First up: Amín Bhija talking about prelim results of his project-->
🦷 What did South America's ancient marsupials eat? Dorien de Vries et al. combines dental topography and machine learning to reconstruct the diets of fossil metatherians, revealing how their ecological diversity changed through deep time. #EAVP2026 #Palaeontology
Michael Buchwitz explores one of #ichnology's biggest challenges: linking fossil footprints to their makers, and how phylogenetic approaches can help us better interpret ancient trackways. #EAVP2026
Session 6 begins: Collections, Methods and Innovation. Expect databases, trackways, fossil preservation, morphometrics, AI and machine learning in vertebrate palaeontology. Tom Foret opens with Tri-Jur archeosauropmorphs #eavp2026
How do we confront the colonial histories behind vertebrate #palaeontology #collections? @daniajinn.bsky.social explores the challenges & opportunities of working with colonial-era collections, asking how museums and researchers can build more ethical, transparent futures
Online talk in FossilLegal: talk by Oleksandr Kovalchuk, Viktor Baranov et al. examines how war transformed Ukrainian vertebrate palaeontology, from colonial legacy to global integration. #eavp2026
Starting soon: FossiLegal 2026 session, first up: "FossilLegal: Ten Years On" with our President Jeff Liston
Last talk of the session: Holly Anderson (@palaeophd) investigates fossils from Yai Ruak Cave, Thailand, revealing evidence for the southernmost #Pleistocene hyena den in Asia and signs of cannibalism!🦴 #EAVP2026 #Taphonomy #Pleistocene

PhD student Jeremias Glöggler discusses deep-time #palaeoenvironments of Eastern Africa, using large herbivorous mammals from the Turkana Basin to reconstruct ancient landscapes #eavp2026 *watch this space for Glöggler et al. (in prep), coming soon*
Simona Bekeraite's talking about evidence that avian predation may have helped drive nocturnality in small mammals. #eavp2026
Good morning from #EAVP2026! Today begins with Cenozoic vertebrate evolution and palaeoecology, then FossilLegal 2026, collections, methods and innovation.
