Our paper on the second plague pandemic is now finally published: www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/... We present 11 new Y. pestis genomes from around Europe and introduce a new approach to refine the dating of ancient genomes that helped us to contextualize 75 plague genomes of the Second Pandemic.

Really happy to share our new preprint on the co-occurrance of Y.pestis and Erysipelothrix spp. during prehistory. 🔥🔥🔥 In the study, we find the earliest evidence to date of Y.pestis in Southern Europe and 60 new Erysipelothrix genomes spanning 20k years 🦠🐄🚶‍♂️⌛ www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

Sometimes is nice to take a day to focus on team spirit. Today the archaeogenomics group took advantage of the sun and went hiking and then made some nice little clay cups. I feel so grateful and recharged ❄️☀️♥️ #genomicstartu #archaeogenomics #teamspirit

🚨Thrilled to share our new paper!! We were able to retrieve ancient DNA and proteins from layers of sediment attached to the skeletal remains of individuals from a Neolithic site from Southern Italy 💀🧬🦠 www.cell.com/iscience/ful...

I am starting a computational lab at LIOS, Riga, Latvia, and going to recruit a few people. Please DM if you are interested in a postdoc or PhD position in my Metabolic Research Group within the TARGETWISE project. I can highly recommend Riga, it is a beautiful city with very good living conditions.
