using musculoskeletal modelling as well. This one was a collaboration that arose from past PhD student James Charles’s thesis: his model has been in much demand from mouse researchers, and in this case we were invited byUniversity of Virginia biomechanical engineersto join them in using ...
present all of the complex data in an analysis like this so someone else can use it. My past modelling papers have not done this, but I aim to backtrack and bring them up to snuff like this. We couldn’t publish open access in Nature, but we achieved reasonably open data at least,...

Asked if this was a not-so-subtle message to world leaders ahead of the upcoming cop26 climate summit in Glasgow, members of the award committee said the prize was meant to celebrate the discoveries themselves. But, they added, it also showed that the modelling of the climate and the notio...
On to the digital stuff- let’s turn the geekitude dial up to 11 with some videos of computer modelling. Our next step, often featured on this blog because I do this so often, is to take CT (and/or MRI) scans of the specimen that we wisely did before we cut it to bits, and ...
I’m preparing to do anatomically-realistic computer modelling of giraffe locomotor mechanics with some colleagues. To do that, we of course need the 3D anatomy of bones, muscles and tendons, for which CT can be pretty useful. Here, we put our first frozen leg through the motions. It was...
And studying fossils, and doing histology (cool imaging techniques with RVC faculty Michael Doube and Andy Pitsillides, along with bone uber-guru Alan Boyde), and conducting experiments with real animals, and computer modelling both experimental and fossil data… this PhD has it all. Here are ...
