Important findings on artifacts in PSMC curves arising from time segmentation/windowing choices, and advice on how to avoid these.

This is now published in Scientific Data: nature.com/articles/s4159…. The survey is expanded to 42 studies, and the paper now includes a Box 1: "Step-by-step best practices for archiving ancient genomics data in the European Nucleotide Archive (ENA)." I hope this will prove useful!

A position is available in my research group at UEA for a wet-lab research assistant, for 3 years, to work on data generation for exciting new genomics projects in urban and rural foxes and other mammals. vacancies.uea.ac.uk/vacancies/1191…

Don't miss this great webinar on Friday next week, celebrating the 40th birthday of the first ancient DNA paper. A great line-up of speakers, sign up here: animal-adna.org/events/2024/11…

In this comment piece with James Fellows Yates | @[email protected] and Christina Warinner, we highlight the mounting problems with data archiving and metadata reporting in ancient DNA research. The field cannot afford to keep neglecting this issue. nature.com/articles/d4158…
