Siempre había encontrado telarañas de / Argiope lobata / construidas en zonas de paso entre arbustos "bajos". Esta araña apostó por tender la tela en un pino, a unos dos metros de altura. Diría que acertó con su apuesta 😉🤩 #fauna #iberica #arañas

After just more than 6 years, @jgschraiber 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)

The #platypus gods have been most kind - this little lady showed up within a minute of me arriving at her creek outside #Hobart today. Literally the greatest species that has ever evolved. #MammalWatching #WildOz #platypuses #Tasmania

On Friday 29th we will also have our monthly #AaRCTikTalks. This month Ophelie Lebrasseur will showcase her work on ancient domestic birds of Asia and South America, while @MariDehasque will showcase her awesome work on mammoth genomics.

Good Monday morning Twitter! How's your week looking? Our's looks great, with October's #AaRCTikTalks comming this Friday! We'll ave Gözge Atag and Connor Rossi showcasing their work on sedaDNA of animals in human remains and tracing the natural history of aurochs. Save the date!

Interested in Ecology and Global Change and doing research in Spain? Check out this call for 2 postdoc positions. ECR from low and medium-income countries encouraged to apply!! Please share and RT!!!

Looking forward to seeing you there or online.

This year it is the 40th anniversary of the study that set all of aDNA research into motion. Come talk with @LudovicLorlando, Robert Fleischer and @SelBrace about this major breakthrough, how the filed has evolved and what's to come on 15th of November. Save the date!

The speakers of our next #AaRCTikTalks are here! And this time, we have bears not only in the title! @IsaFeinauer will show her results on Scandinavian brown bear populaitons, while Natalia Przelomska will delve into the past of the endangered sturgeon from the Chesapeak.

For example, @MSrigyan received the #SMBEbeyond poster prize for her current work on Tricolored blackbirds 🎉

One of the best things about attending conferences is that you get a chance to see what your former students are up to. It's great to see what @masterolojist @MSrigyan @genesandstuff have turned into #SMBEbeyond

Thank you everyone! #smbeBeyond

It’s time for animal genomics as we delve deeper into the perspectives of imputation in the field 🐮 #smbeBeyond

A day filled with insightful discussions and networking at the SMBE Satellite Meeting! #smbeBeyond

Very excited to be starting my group this autumn at ithems.riken.jp/en @RIKEN_JP and we’re hiring! riken.jp/en/careers/res… Many more fellowship opportunities as well, please get in touch if interested and see you in Tokyo!

Already heading back home from #SMBEBeyond. What and amazing time! Thanks to all the organizers for their hard work @SMBESat2024_TCD and @OfficialSMBE for making it possible.

Today we have the June session of #AaRCTikTalks with @IndianaDiez and Germán Hernández-Alonso. Registration in our website: …mal-adna-research-community.github.io/AaRC.github.io…

A thoughtful new paper from the Dutch bioethicist Nina de Groot. She argues that for the purposes of sharing genetic data we need to look beyond approaches based on individual informed consent. She proposes a contextual integrity framework. link.springer.com/article/10.100…

Finally our ancient DNA study on Merovingian Flanders is out @PNASNews! Discover our surprising capture of a fusion of 2 genetic ancestries on coastal Koksijde (Belgium) in 675-750 AD #EarlyMiddelAges Our paper 👉 pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn… 🧵1/9 @KU_Leuven @CHG_CME (Photo: @vioe)

Our alumni Martin Larsson, @genesandstuff , Li Pan and @andre_elias (and @trstn_gnthr ) are showing that short-tailed sheep 🐑 have been in the Baltic Sea region for at least 4000 years 🤯 doi.org/10.1093/gbe/ev…
