Our new preprint in collaboration with Luigi Borruso 🔬🧬🌍 and Anna Sandionigi on detecting interesting traces of ancient fungal DNA in the gut of Tyrolean Iceman (Ötzi)

Welcome to Darwin Day Universitetet i Oslo! Monday 12 February, Helga Engs hus, Blindern. Topic: «Understanding human evolution and culture through ancient DNA». Talks by Anders Götherström @Greger_Larson Christina Warinner and Phil Slavin. Department of Biosciences, University of Oslo Realfagsbiblioteket #DarwinDay mn.uio.no/cees/english/r…

Vi har nått till vägs ände med biskop Winstrup (1605-1679), fostret i kistan är hans dotterson, Anna Marias son. Men det var ett riktigt detektivarbete att ta sig dit: sydsvenskan.se/2024-02-04/mum… #aDNA #cpgSTHLM #Lund

Idag är det 165 år sedan Svante Arrhenius föddes. Han var professor & rektor vid Stockholms högskola. Blev förste svenske nobelpristagare med Nobelpris i kemi 1903. Han var en av de första att förutsäga globala uppvärmningen #Klimat Se bildspel & läs mer su.se/om-universitet…

What can you do with three days and a few hours in Turkey. I would suggest working on an archaeogenetic ms, and a a forensic application. And also to use the last hours for an ultra trail in Ephesus. #aDNA #archaeogenetics #ephesusultra

There are different extraction and lib methods for aDNA out there. It is good with a little bit of data on them. Dabney extractions remain our choice, BEST libs are not so bad, and WGC has its use: future-science.com/doi/10.2144/bt… #aDNA #cpgSTHLM

A warm congratulation from Stockholm Cris.

I have a postdoc position available on our 'COREX: From correlations to explanations: towards a new European prehistory' grant: ucl.ac.uk/work-at-ucl/se… ... working at the intersection of archaeology, ancient DNA, computational modelling and stats

An interesting double burial from Czulice with children belonging to a Hun group displayed variation. Both were boys, but one had an altered scull, was equipped with prestigious object and displayed Asian genetic ancestry: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

A few days of coring peatbogs on Islay, the Inner Hebrides, provides enough material to keep both the DNA lab and the geo lab going for some time: su.se/english/news/p… #aDNA #cpgSTHLM #archaeogenetics

A clip (in Swedish) about Kronan. Note the different accents. This rhymes well with the genomics indicating the sailors were recruited from all over Sweden: youtube.com/watch?v=DufVo7… #aDNA #Kronan #cpgSTHLM

Happy Midsummer from CPG! We just finished equipping what will be the world’s northernmost ancient DNA laboratory, onboard the icebreaker Oden! We’re off to >83 degrees North. See you after the summer! polar.se/en/expeditions…

Our latest preprint: paleogenomic insights about the mothers and daughters of Çatalhöyük biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

We don’t think humans caused the extinction on Wrangel. This far north, remains of human activity (fire hearths, flint tools, reworked bones, etc) are very easy to find. No such remains dating to, or prior to, the extinction have been found. More here: reuters.com/science/genome…

Our new preprint on Aegean Neolithization is out! Discover the manifold ways of how the Neolithic spread from the Fertile Crescent to Western Anatolia and then to Europe🌾📷🔬 Dilek Koptekin biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Equipped with a whole genome, we discussed taxonomy of this enigmatic species and dynamics behind its extinction.

New evidence from 10th-century Spanish remains hints that #Smallpox may have spread from central and northern Europe to Iberia, shedding light on medieval disease transmission. #History #Archaeology science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

We have collected sediment cores from lakes on northern Greenland, and now we need a postdoc to help us with the sedaDNA. If you are interested in sedaDNA, the Arctic, and human-faunal interaction, apply for this postdoc at CPG in Stockholm: su.se/english/about-… #aDNA #CPG

Watch Icebreaker Oden slam into, and even jumping onto, the >4 metre multiyear ice of the Lincoln Sea! 💪💪💪 No ship has ever been here before… Our team from #CpgSthlm is onboard, collecting ancient DNA samples along the N Greenland coast. #GEOEO Expedition SvenskPolarforskning

Umm... The only ship even remotely close to "sailing around" #Greenland is Swedish Icebreaker Oden. Last summer, with US and Danish scientists, we went further north along Greenland's west coast than any ship has done before. So Oden is totally the "right ship" for this 😂
