doi.org/10.1016/j.hi... The Mismeasure of Neanderthals. Our latest paper, a critical review of Neanderthal iconography through time, with epistemological, paleobiological, ethical, and aesthetic contributions. Thank you for reading and for your comments.
Very happy. A paper just out of the oven. It is a piece of work made possible only after many years of thinking about, and looking at, an old problem from multiple perspectives. And with the magical brushstrokes of our artists, Gabriela and Ariadna. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
Our beloved teacher in palynology, Michèle Dupré, has left us — a luminous being of knowledge and kindness. May she rest in peace and live on in all of us who learned from her how to walk lightly, rise gently, and fall without a sound.

A last paper. To our knowledge, the Biennale has never shown paleoart before. With Gabriela Amorós, Ana B. Marín-Arroyo & Federica Crivellaro, we bring a scientifically informed work that explores the ecological, artistic & social scope of the Venetian panel. www.cell.com/iscience/ful...

WHY BOTHER VOTING IN SPAIN? Just ask the Supreme Court, bishops, IBEX bosses, and Franco’s leftovers who should rule, who gets crushed, and who pays in silence. Keep people ignorant, the hierarchy sacred, and the cash flowing up. It’s tradition.

Here it is! Please welcome the AMAZING Mirasaura grauvogeli, a NEW MARVELOUS Drepanosaur published in NATURE today! This astonishing reptile lived during the Middle Triassic in Europe and it possessed an amazing crest made of plume-like structures! I was commissioned to bring it to life #paleoart
Just finished the Spanish edition of a book I’d already read in English. Flawless translation. Solid, well-told science—no drama, no nonsense. One of the great minds behind it. Congrats, Tom. (Photo: my old grape knife, harvest-trained in 1970).

A 2014 photo at the Biology faculty cafeteria (Murcia), with Encarni Montoya. She started in palynology under my distracted watch… and has long since surpassed me. Brilliant work, always humble, honest, and generous. So proud. Grande, my Encarni.

Un síntoma más de una sociedad débil y enferma que se vuelve incapaz de enfrentar realidades dificiles no es solo no escuchar las recomendaciones científicas sino que sea la desvergüenza la que lo impulse #ciencia #fernandovalladares elasombrario.publico.es/la-desvergue...

Ariadna, one of my two artists, gave me this drawing: it brings back my childhood and the bond with Estrellica, a stray dog a friend and I once rescued. It was a tense night—we truly put ourselves at risk, as the city was rounding up dogs to be killed. That night, over 100 were saved.
