Do you anaesthetise #turtles? Did you want to check how much to ventilate them? Did you want to know what happens to their lung volumes if you have to turn them on their backs for surgery? Do you like in-vivo lung #CTscan s? If yes...#OpenAccess doi.org/10.1016/j.cbpa.2021.โ€ฆ

It's been a busy couple of months, working with @jaimiAgray and @davidcblackburn, getting the #DICECT for #oVertTCN spun up. There are a lot of really cool soft tissue lizard datasets that are going up on @MorphoSource. Check out this armadillo lizard scan!

Retweeting as to good to miss #ReptileAwarenessDay with recent modelling of how anaesthetising reptiles is different from anaesthetising a mammal
"Are we nearly there yet"....said the tortoise and the hare as they went under anaesthesia......A short thread about rabbits, terrapins and modelling gas anesthetics....(paper in @SciReports at nature.com/articles/s41598-0โ€ฆ)

I am so pissed that Iโ€™m shaking. Itโ€™s around 5pm, broad daylight. I had to go to lab briefly so my husband drove me. We pull up, thereโ€™s a white man sitting in his car across from us (important for later). I go in, do what I need to, and am out less than 10 mins later.
