Starting a year full of excitement. Here's to years filled with struggle 💫
📣 New pre-print alert! Our beloved mouflon study is online! Atağ et al chase up evolutionary history of mouflons with fresh Anatolian and Cyprus mouflon genomic data. 🧪 🐑 🌏 #biodiversity#Conservationwww.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

We all know the journals market has rapidly consolidated over recent years. But where's the data? I set out to find some numbers to put behind the common sense.
aMeta, a new approach as an ancient metagenomic workflow, is finally online! Great experience for me to dive into the microbe world 🧪 🏺 🦠 Hope to see more users and experience soon! #ancientDNA#anthropology#microbiology#genomics#sciencegenomebiology.biomedcentral.com/articles/10....
Analysis of microbial data from archaeological samples is a growing field with great potential for understanding ancient environments, lifestyles, and diseases. However, high error rates have been a c...
Really enjoyed writing this review on deep-time paleogenomics 🦣🐴🪨🦬🐀🧬 Will be hiring two PhD students on the subject (ad out soon 👀) Paper: www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...drive.google.com/file/d/1Jvn7...
