This is finally published in #PNAS, take a look! We found #Neanderthal #aDNA in resin-soaked sediment blocks from #Denisova Cave. This is a game-changer as we can now explore dirt for DNA at highly spatially resolved scale. Don’t throw out your offcuts, they might be full of 🧬

Nice starting day for the TIFA "Genomics for Archaeologists" at ICArEHB. Great presentarions by @HugoRCOliveira and Viviane Slon. We have also had nice practical lab work today!

Thanks for having me, ICArEHB! I hope that the attendees enjoyed this #AncientDNA crash course as much as I enjoyed teaching it!

📢 Open post-doc position! 📢 Interested in using ancient sedimentary DNA data to learn about human evolution? #sedaDNA #ancientDNA Come and join us for a shared project between @moorjani_priya's lab and mine Details 👇 bit.ly/3tUbnyb Please RT!

I’m thrilled to announce that from today on, I’m a faculty in the Department of Genetics of Yale University Yale Department of Genetics ! The Massilani Lab will study human evolutionary history by applying state of the art methods to analyze ancient DNA from bones and archaeological sediments.

Nov 1 last day INQUARoma2023 abstract submission to session 90: #AncientDNA from #Quaternary and #Archeological #Sediments Conveners: Laura Parducci Francesco Ficetola Viviane Slon Inger Alsos, Tony Brown. #climatechange #sedDNA #environmentalArcheology Please RT!

סיכום מצוין של המאמר שלנו אודות ״דני״, שחיה לפני 90,000 שנה, בת לאמא ניאנדרטלית ואבא דניסובני. תודה Dvir Aran! למתעניינים הקוראים באנגלית, בזמנו כתבתי בלוג לקהל הרחב הנותן פרטים נוספים על התגלית - מוזמנים לקרוא כאן: ecoevocommunity.nature.com/posts/38064-an…

Working on ancient sedimentary DNA #sedaDNA AND looking for an excuse to visit ROME? 🧬💀🇮🇹 Join us at INQUARoma2023! Session 90 will be all about #ancientDNA in sediments - see details below 👇 Abstract submissions are due Nov 1 - hurry! inquaroma2023.org

What I love about this field is how from a few fragments of bones and teeth, one can end up with a vivid picture of a #Neanderthal family that lived tens of thousands of years ago. To me, that's the magic of #ancientDNA So happy to see this paper out!

During his #NobelPrize lecture, this year's medicine laureate Svante Pääbo spoke about the research that he has dedicated his life to: studying our ancient ancestors and how we as modern humans are related to them. Watch the lecture here: youtube.com/watch?v=ps79u_…

Fully funded PhD and Postdoc opportunities in Biological Anthropology 🦴💀🦷Tel Aviv University

Looking forward to sharing some thoughts on the power of sedimentary ancient DNA research #sedaDNA If you're at #PAG30 and interested in #AncientDNA, please drop by this morning!

לחובבי האבולוציה דוברי העברית - הקלטנו הבוקר תוכנית מיוחדת של ״שלושה שיודעים״ לקראת יום דרווין בהשתתפותי ובהשתתפות אפרת גביש-רגב, נטע דורצ׳ין ו-Viviane Slon . התוכנית תשודר מחר ב״כאן תרבות״ בין 7 ל-8 בבוקר, ותהיה זמינה גם כפודקאסט באתר של ״כאן״.

A great pleasure to have Annette Günzel visit us in Vienna today. There is no better graphic designer in the business of archaeological science in my view. She created our nature cover w. Viviane Slon Svante Pääbo Benjamin Vernot Katerina Douka et al + HEAS Vienna logo and posters too
