After years of work, I am thrilled to annouced that our paper 'Demographic history and genetic structure in pre-Hispanic Central Mexico' is finally out. 🥳🤩🙌🏽 science.org/doi/10.1126/sc… We have : 1/7
Attention scientists from all over the world🙃 It's time to reach out to collaborators, brainstorm bold ideas, and craft innovative research proposals!💡 The Letter of Intent submission for the HFSP Research Grants is opening soon! Stay tuned!📡 🔗bit.ly/hfspgrants
It has been three days of excellent talks, posters, and scientists. Thank you to all the organizers! I enjoyed a lot the #smbeBeyond Dublin ☘️. I already want to come back again.
Thank you everyone! #smbeBeyond
What a lovely week attending #SMBE2024, with great scientists, talks, and posters. This is my first time with many of my colleagues in the same meeting ❤️. Thanks to the LOC for bringing SMBE to 🇲🇽

Our paper out in nature! It was fun to be part of this project.
The MX Biobank paper is out today in @Nature! This is the first national-scale genomic database in Mexico and the largest independent project led by my lab @cinvestav since I returned to my home country to help building local capacity. rdcu.be/dojZ5
