Sad to lose a student, but happy to gain a colleague (and friend 😊). Congrats Dr.@DanaKorneisel! Can't wait to see what comes next. #MaddinLab
I'll be looking for an MSc or PhD student to take on some evo-devo research in my lab starting fall 2024. Skull and somite fate mapping, and brain-skull devo, in frogs and salamanders. DM or email me before the end of the calendar year! #MaddinLab
We are seeking to fill one last PhD position on our NSERC Alliance grant in partnership with the New Brunswick Museum. Join an enthusiastic team based in Ottawa, Canada, to study new and exciting Carboniferous vertebrate fossils! #SVP2023 @CarletonScience #MaddinLab
We're hiring! 2-year fossil preparator position to be based at Carleton University, Ottawa, Canada. Contact one of us for more info! Apply by May 5th, but applications will be accepted until position is filled.
Calling all interested prospective students! We're about to launch our NSERC-Alliance-funded program exploring Carboniferous vertebrates of New Brunswick. Stay tuned for a call for a two-year technical position too! #CarletonUniversity #MaddinLab et al. #paleontology
Sad to have missed #SVP2022 (not sad for the reason - new baby) but mega proud of the team representing the #MaddinLab. Great talks by @jadeinjoggins, Misha, @cullen_thomas and @DanaKorneisel, who was also this year’s Cohen Award recipient.
Welcome Dr. McFeeters! Seen here in the Jurassic and Carboniferous of Nova Scotia, though he'd take the Cretaceous any day ;). Exquisite thesis completed on the ontogeny and morphology braincases of hadrosaurs, with evolutionary implications. #MaddinLab @ErthSciCarleton
Congrats to @MannArjan and @incisorial on identifying a new limb-reduced tetrapod! A keen eye reveals Nagini had small hindlimbs, but no arms! Special thanks to @Paleoartologist for bringing the beast to life.
Introducing the world to the New Recumbirostran, Nagini mazonense, revealing oldest example of Snake-like Limb-loss in the fossil record of Amniotes! from the world famous Mazon Creek Lagerstatte, Illinois, USA! Reconstruction by @Paleoartologist

Enjoy a 3D look at the best preserved specimen of Dendrerpeton. Lots more work to be done on this complex of taxa. Congrats to former PDF Thomas Arbez and former PhD @jadeinottawa #FossilFriday #MaddinLab #CarletonNovaScotiaPaleo onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…
Better late than never! #MaddinLab secret santa was a great success! So many cool objects perfectly selected for everyone. 🎅
Great blog post by our very own. @DanaKorneisel. Check out her exciting research, which was also recently published in the @AnatRecord #maddinlab @CarletonScience How many bones are in an alligator neck? It’s complicated blog.csz-scz.ca/2022/01/19/h…
I may be axo’little, but I’m an axolotl. Behold my glorious head ferns. #MaddinLab @CarletonScience #evodevo #axolotl
Thrilled to have launched our first PalEO event! An astonishing 33 participants from our three Capital Region institutions (@Carleton_U, @uOttawa, @MuseumofNature) joined to meet. Members will peer-mentor each other in key skills ranging from photography to database mining.
Challenging year, but another fierce #womenInScience completed yet another awesome thesis. Cool empirical results implicating the role of the forebrain in skull development in a frog. Master Erin McKenzie is off to Oxford for clinical embryology. Good luck! #MaddinLab #EvoDevo
Congrats to Brad McFeeters on his new paper, with co-author @DavidEvans_ROM describing ontogeny and variation in the skull of #Maiasaura
Check it out! #MaddinLab #DinosaursAreOkToo #FossilFriday #paleontology #dinosaurs

Ragnarok is upon us.....New PAPER!
Introducing the world to Joermungandr bolti, a new Carboniferous-aged recumbirostran from Mazon Creek, Illinois. This stunning little reptilian animal is named after the Midgard "world" serpent from Norse Myth! royalsocietypublishing.org/d…
