Crazy Croc Week!

Hi Everyone,
Sorry that I haven't had a moment to send a note out thanking everyone for funding this project. As soon as the funds are released we are going to schedule the sequencing run at the genome center.
In the mean time some updates...
First of all, I had the privilege to spend last week working with colleagues at the American Museum of Natural History (@amnh) on the media launch of the the new Crocs! exhibit. It was a whirlwind of interviews, photos and sharing the highlights of the exhibit with folks from the press and with visitors. We are really hoping that this exhibit will open some eyes about the amazing archosaurs around us!
The other exciting thing that happened was today's NPR science Friday episode. It was all about exploring ideas for antibiotics from past perspectives. What a great fit with our project!
Oh.. and I spent the day Tuesday with colleagues scanning more animal mummies from the collections of the Brooklyn Museum. This tiny guy was a big hit. More on the mummies next time...
Cheers to all, E
