Description: Bird wings are iconic structures. Across cultures and through history they appear, grafted in their entirety, onto other beings or objects of symbols of speed or flight. But beneath the feathers lies a system of bones, muscles and tendons that governs flight mechanics in a very concrete way. This presentation will explore the evolutionary story and anatomy of bird wings, drawing from Dr. Hieronymus’ lab.
