SP1 Dynamics of Nature Evolutionary Morphology Research Morphology Evolution Fossils In search of the processes and forces behind the evolution of the skull in early terrestrial vertebrates The different environments of terrestrial vertebrates over time have led to a great diversity in the structure and shape of skulls. Scientists of the Museum für Naturkunde Berlin describe and analyze these differences within the framework of the project.

SP1 Dynamics of Nature Evolutionary Morphology Research Morphology Evolution Fossils Moving monoliths: Analyzing the stance and locomotion of sauropod dinosaurs Herbivorous dinosaurs were the largest land-dwelling animals to ever inhabit the Earth. Despite extensive research, it is still unclear how these gigantic dinosaurs were able to move. Scientists at the museum are now investigating this question.
SP1 Dynamics of Nature Solar System, Impacts & Meteorites Research Impact Planetary Defense: Deflecting dangerous asteroids The goal of the mission, led by NASA and ESA, is to provide scientific evidence for the possibility of deflection of an asteroid by external impact. Scientists from the Museum für Naturkunde Berlin are part of the international team.
SP1 Dynamics of Nature Evolutionary Morphology Research Morphology Mammals Evolution Fossils Do large mammals have smaller and simpler brains on islands? Within the framework of the project, scientists from the Museum für Naturkunde Berlin will analyze in more detail how the brains of island-dwelling mammals have changed over time and which factors have played a role in this.
