Congrats Dr. Anahit Hovhannisyan Anahit Hovhannisyan for being awarded the Gerda Henkel Stiftung Scholarship! Dr. Hovhannisyan will be conducting the “ARMAT: Unrooting Secrets of Armenian Medieval Parchment” project, under the supervision of Prof. Dan Bradley Dan Bradley @brad-dan.bsky.social

Our new paper on the dynamic ancient genomic history of the aurochs is out in Nature. Well done to all, esp. Conor Rossi. Free download link. rdcu.be/dYAV3

Congratulations to Conor Rossi, Dan Bradley @brad-dan.bsky.social and everyone involved!!

Yesterday our paper on the genomics of the extinct aurochs was published in nature! I’m so happy to see this work finally released to the wild (ahem…). nature.com/articles/s4158… 🧵 Please follow along this thread of the main findings! 🐄🧬🦴

Let the skies remain blue. I’ve just joined the #bluesky 🦋

Herodotus' theory on #Armenian origins has been debunked by the first related whole-genome study, conducted by a team of researchers led by Dr Anahit Hovhannisyan from TCD Genetics & Microbiology. Read more about the findings at: tcd.ie/news_events/ar… #TrinityResearch

The first whole-genome study refutes Herodotus' theory of Armenian origins from Phrygian settlers, finding no genetic ties with the Balkans. Evidence points to Neolithic Levantine ancestry. Trinity College Dublin AJHG doi.org/g8rxtr phys.org/news/2024-11-h…

Thank you AJHG Alyson Barnes for the opportunity to talk about our recent paper and also share my story!

Our new paper is out! Congrats to the whole team, especially the staff and students Bournemouth Uni who have been excavating this incredible site for 15 years (with much more left to uncover!) Widespread matrilocality in Iron Age Britain - Up Na Mná :) rdcu.be/d6mb0
