Summary: Controlled modification of sequencing data is important for reproducible benchmarking, particularly when evaluating analyses affected by read fragmentation, divergent reference genomes and an...

Abstract. Ancient DNA (aDNA) analysis has transformed how we study human migration, species dispersals and environmental change, but poor preservation rema

Researchers managed to extract DNA from African fossils dating back to the last ice age.

Parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity are required to report on progress towards the Kunming–Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (KMGBF…

Author summary Advancements in genomic sequencing analyses are increasingly allowing researchers to reconstruct the genomes of microbial ‘dark matter’—those microbial species that are difficult to iso...

Summary Ancient DNA studies are increasingly targeting samples that are beyond the limit of radiocarbon dating (>50 thousand years old) and are often difficult or impossible to date using other geochr...

Heredity - Phylogeographic and demographic responses of Eurasian moose to climate change since the Late Pleistocene

PhD student position in Population Genomics , Department of Organismal Biology, Uppsala University

Souilmi et al. propose essential guidelines to improve the reproducibility of paleogenomic data analysis. As ancient DNA research often relies on the destructive sampling of finite resources, these re...

Environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding provides powerful insights into species presence and community composition, but remains limited in its ability to quantify species abundance or structure. Here, ...

Our global research ecosystem is at risk — it's time to invest in the tools and services that power research and scholarship.

At a time when US scientists are under attack from their own government, the illiteracy around these elephantine fantasies is dangerous, says geneticist Adam Rutherford
