Next Friday (28th) we will have 2 amazing talks about the paleogenomics of woolly mammoths and rock doves. Are you going to miss them? Register for our #AaRCTikTalk series in our website! …mal-adna-research-community.github.io/AaRC.github.io…

Why did the last mammoth population go extinct? Read all about it in our latest paper: cell.com/cell/fulltext/… and have a look at the thread below!

Full program for #SMBE2024 available here: shorturl.at/0Tp7M (the program activities is divided by halls) A venue map will be provided shortly. T-1 week for #SMBE2024, hope to see everyone in Puerto Vallarta!

After just more than 6 years, Joshua G. Schraiber and I can finally share the results of one of those "quick side projects": 'Estimating allele frequencies, ancestry proportions and genotype likelihoods in the presence of mapping bias' doi.org/10.1101/2024.0… Short 🧵(1/6)

Out in Evolutionary Applications: led by Emily Cavill we show how Seychelles magpie robins lost genetic diversity and accumulated genetic load due to a bottleneck. New populations were established, but lost diversity is v hard to recover, risking long-term survival. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/ev…

Here it finally is, our paper about Denisovan subsistence strategies at Baishiya Karst Cave! This was a wonderful collaborative project, I feel so lucky to have been a part of this amazing team 😀

🦣🏔️📷 The world's last mammoth died on Wrangel Island at c. 2000 BC. But what does Wrangel look like today? Join this 🧵to find out! RT to show your appreciation for those doing fieldwork in remote places, which is often where the science begins! cell.com/cell/fulltext/…

Join us! #SMBE24 Symposium on Conservation Genomics Talks on innovations, applications, and future directions: Conservation genomics in action🧬🎬 Adaptation to climate change🌡️🌍 Gene duplication and epigenetics🐢🐚 eDNA from footprints🐾🧪 Predicting pathogenic var with AI🤖🧬

Our work on new hybrid yeast for lager 🍺 is in The Economist! Those wild Chilean strains can spice things up! 🥳

We are excited to share our new paper introducing a new tool for scrutinising #ancientDNA data - AMBER - and using this tool to examine reference genome alignment bias. doi.org/10.1093/bioinf…

I am very happy to be at #SMBE2024 to receive the amazing news that we are bringing #SMBE2026 to Copenhagen!! Thanks for the vote of trust Society for Molecular Biology and Evolution

Looking forward to the #SMBE2024 gala dinner. Remember the best cure for the hangover is listening to Xuejing Wang talking about the genomic consequences of a bottleneck of 4 individuals! Representing our group on July 11, 10:35 am at Las Pilitas room

4-year postdoc position in ancient human population genomics in my lab at the Crick. crick.wd3.myworkdayjobs.com/External/job/L… Join us if you are interested in studying genetic history and/or natural selection in Europe and/or elsewhere, using ancient human shotgun genomes. Starting time is

The READv2 paper, the outcome of Erkin Alaçamlı 's MSc thesis is now out 🥳: "READv2: advanced and user-friendly detection of biological relatedness in archaeogenomics" genomebiology.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11… Congrats to Erkin and everyone else involved!! 🧵 (1/2)

I have a fully funded postdoc position open in my lab. The postdoc will get to work on a whole genome sequence based population genetics project focused on several Greenlandic land mammals. For details see tinyurl.com/2zae8zym. Application deadline is September 27. Please RT.

Our paper out today in Cell Biology reports a new Neanderthal skeleton ("Thorin") from Mandrin (France) and the DNA from it shows that he represents a distinct population that stayed isolated for ~50,000 years in Europe from other Neanderthal groups. cell.com/cell-genomics/…

On November 15th we'll celebrate the 40th aniversary of the first aDNA paper. Join us and our amazing speakers on the #QaggaQonference at 3pm GMT/ 4pm GMT+1 / 10am EST. Save the date!
