Hot off the press! We’re excited to introduce a new plesiadapiform species – Purgatorius mckeeveri – and the earliest dated occurrences of archaic primates 🐒 in the fossil record – as part of our collaborative research published today @RSocPublishing!

NEW in the Contributions of the UMMP: "Phylogeny and Evolution of North American Nothartcinae (Mammalia, Primates) in the early Eocene of Wyoming," in which Philip Gingerich suggests notharctine diversity paralleled warming and cooling during the Early Eocene Climatic Optimum.
It was really great talking with Senator Schumer @SenSchumer on Friday! We discussed the @BklynCollege411 Tow Mentoring & Research Program and our @NSF funded research on primate origins, the K/Pg mass extinction, and global warming!
It was our pleasure to welcome Senate Majority Leader Charles E. Schumer @senschumer to campus on Friday.
Happy #FossilFriday! We're excited about our recently funded @NSF collaborative research grant on how life recovered following the K/Pg mass extinction! Contact Prof. Chester if you're a @BklynCollege411 undergrad interested in paid research to study fossil mammals!
“This funding will support half a decade of exciting research and paid undergraduate assistantships.”
@BrooklynAnthro's Stephen Chester (@ChesterLabCUNY) + @DenverMuseumNS colleagues have been awarded a collaborative research grant from the @NSF. brooklyn.edu/bc-news/profess…
