I am proud and grateful to present a dream project today in @Nature! nature.com/articles/s4158… Meet #Mirasaura grauvogeli, a #wonderreptilewith skin appendages that rival feathers and hairs, challenging our view of reptile #evolution🪶🦎
Its finally out! Please Welcome Mirasaura! A new drepanosaur from the Middle Triassic of France. @SerpenIllus made the press artwork but I couldn't hold back and had to do my own interpretation during break time =)
The team came to the ESRF to scan the skull of the reptile at the new beamline BM18. Great collaboration!

Having an absolutely wonderful time at #IVPP in Beijing, studying old and new fossil friends alike, including possibly the world's coolest jigsaw puzzle #Dinocephalosaurus #RealChineseDragon🐉🐉🐉🐉 #Tanysauria, together with Wang Wei, Adam Rytel, and Nick Fraser!
Great job opportunity for someone interested in early mammal evolution and fieldwork in the Middle Jurassic of Skye, working with @gsciencelady @LukeEMeade and Richard Butler: jobs.ac.uk/job/DLK473/res…
