Big thanks to the Budapest HNHM for providing access to this unique material! With Prof. Mihaly Gasparik & @segesdimartin.bsky.social
The final chapter of my PhD is out!!
What happens when graviportal taxa get dwarfed? We explore this in dwarf elephantids from the Mediterranean Sea, looking at the inner and outer anatomy of limb long bones. 🐘📄

Pangolins possess a spectacular, dense network of diploic veins for brain drainage!
In our latest study, we show that this pattern may also provide rare morphological evidence linking pangolins and carnivorans in the Ferae clade.
