Today I officially started my contract as a Ramón y Cajal researcher at @iphes-cerca.bsky.social. I leave many friends behind at @icarehb.bsky.social , but I’m sure we’ll keep collaborating just as we have until now. Very happy to open this new chapter and excited for what’s ahead! 🔬✨

Today, I have had the privilege to be a member of the jury at the PhD defence of Cristian Micó, from @urv.cat @iphes-cerca.bsky.social. His thesis is proof of his dedication and the hard work done. It also shows the potential of works on teeth taphonomy. I wish him the best success for the future.
