My pet mice Gadget & Gizmo volunteered as intrepid #trackmakers for our @ibe-warszawa.bsky.social students studying #ichnology! NB: These girls are professionals. They were not harmed/stressed in any way - rather spoilt with attention, a new luxury pink VW carrier & a large cheese payment 🧀

Twisted the rings on the Schöner Brunnen of the Nürnberger Christkindlesmarkt before returning home to Warsaw, urban legend has it that if you can turn the rings in the fence three times, good luck will come your way for an entire year 🍀 #PalAss24

Fantastic but 'pants' @thepalass.bsky.social Annual Address by Prof Sarah Gabbott talking about how she is pivoting her groundbreaking palaeo work to understand how long it takes for plastics to breakdown. Eye opening and frankly bleak stuff for our environment. #plasticwaste

Taphonomy is my first love, and I have consumed a lot of sugar at the Christmas market, so I am literally hyper-excited for the #PalAss24 'Rotten Fossils' #taphonomy workshop with @taphonomist.bsky.social tomorrow

Introduce yourself with your worst feedback from school: I'm Holly. Considering my schools bad reputation, I should forget about becoming a palaeontologist. If I'm lucky, I could be a hairdresser or nail technician and live above the poverty line.

My first #graduation was from #DurhamUniversity, UK in 2015. The ceremony occurs in #DurhamCathedral, which was used as a filming location for #Asgard Palace in #Avengers: Endgame and #Hogwarts in Harry Potter & The Philosophers Stone. Thus, I can claim I'm a scientist, an Asgardian & a #witch! 🧙‍♀️⚡🧪

As a child, family holidays were taken in Alnmouth & Berwick in the northeast UK. One day while rockpooling, I found my first #fossil and my lifelong obsession began. I still have my little rugose coral 🪸 #palaeontology
