Dig your teeth into our recent graphical abstract! 🧪🎨🐡🦷 Check out the fascinating paper here: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
Graphical abstract shows an overview of the paper ‘Functional optimality underpins the repeated evolution of the extreme “sabre-tooth” morphology’. At the top is a Sabre-tooth cat bearing its fangs. Next to it text reads: ‘We studied 3D tooth shape and mechanics of non sabre-tooth and sabre-tooth mammals. Underneath is a Principal Component Analysis plot of functional optimality of teeth in Caniformia, Feliformia, and Metatheria. Text at the bottom reads ‘We found functional optimality drives the repeated evolution of extreme sabre tooth forms’.

Want to show off your marvellous methods in a way to make your colleagues say ‘Magnificent!’? 🤩 Check out this recent figure we made on an experiment set up! 🧪🐡👩‍🔬 You can read the marvellous paper here: royalsocietypublishing.org/rsos/article...
Blue background. The figure shows an experiment set up to test primate memory and logic. The top half shows the training phase and bottom half shows the testing phase. In the experiment, the monkey is shown a box with a tube into which is either placed a high value reward or a paper towel. The monkey can then either choose between that box or a box with a low value reward.
