Let me entertain you with a personal account of how we sequenced DNA that is more than 1 million years old. @love_dalen @T_vd_Valk @IndianaDiez @CpgSthlm @PalaeoPete @MaDehasque natureecoevocommunity.nature.com/posts/pushing-…

Is anybody still here? Just reminding you that today is the last day to apply for my postdoc position on genomics of the elephant ivory trade.

🚨Job alert 🚨 We are looking for a Postdoc to join us in Stockholm, on a project that aims to use palaeogenomics to investigate cold adaptation in several different Arctic animals! ❄️🧬❄️🧬❄️🧬❄️🧬❄️🧬❄️🧬 Please RT! Full advertisement is here: su.se/department-of-…

"Use or abuse of trophy hunting for conservation genomics?" We investigate the ethical and practical considerations of using biological samples acquired through legal trophy hunting, and the consequences of blanket bans for conservation science. wildlife.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/jw…

New woolly rhino (Coelodonta antiquitatis) mummy found metro.co.uk/2024/08/05/car…

A 52,000-year-old woolly mammoth was impeccably freeze-dried by nature, its swatches of fur remaining intact — remarkably enough — and allowing a global team of scientists to reconstruct the creature’s three-dimensional genome for the first time. wapo.st/3Lh6FTw

Who remembers this moment in Prince of Persia (1989) where a magic mirror suddenly blocks the hero's path (and what happens afterward)? This moment was actually never planned to be in the game. My original vision was a game with lots of traps, but NO enemies... (1/10)

Yay Yay Yay! 🥳

🚨Ancient DNA Alert🚨 Regardless of read length, the average distance to the reference genome should be the same. This is not what we find for e.g. Bowtie2 (see image) 😱😱😱 Read Pete’s thread below. And here is the paper: academic.oup.com/bioinformatics…
