PhD student in population genetics at @cpgsthlm.bsky.social. My research focuses on deep-time ancient DNA studies of rodents (mainly Arvicola), but I occasionally work on brown bears too🐭🧬🐻

The Scandinavian brown #bear population nearly went extinct in the early 1900’s due to human overhunting. Using data from museum specimens and modern bears, this #RSOS assesses the genomic consequences of this severe population decline: doi.org/10.1098/rsos... @amandalindahl.bsky.social

How did catastrophic black death and myxomatosis outbreaks on an isolated island affect the genomes of humans & rabbits, respectively? And how did the microbes evolve in response to this? PhD position @cpgsthlm.bsky.social with Anders Götherström and me as supervisors! su.varbi.com/en/what:job/...

It’s always been a mystery to me how the genetic diversity and composition of the Scandinavian brown bear originated 🤔 Today, we publish a new paper that sheds new light on this, and a real-time example of how mito-nuclear discordances can evolve during severe bottlenecks: doi.org/10.1098/rsos...

Trots att brunbjörnen nästan utrotades i början på 1900-talet så har varken inavelsgraden eller individernas genetiska variation påverkats. Detta överraskande resultat kan troligtvis förklaras med genetiskt utbyte via vandrande hanbjörnar. Studie från @cpgsthlm.bsky.social www.su.se/nyheter/nyhe...

Temporal genomics reveals widespread but unexpected consequences of a bottleneck in the Scandinavian brown bear
Abstract. After the last ice age, the brown bear (Ursus arctos) recolonized Scandinavia, likely from two different source populations, resulting in two sub
