The science is amazing and what’s even more impressive is Ice lollies at #ISBA11 💕💕💕 😂😂😂

#ISBA11, where great science met old friends, new connections and a delightfully chaotic Italian vibe. Turin’s coffee, #MuseoEgizio and #Bardonecchia mountains sealed the deal.

Thank you #SMBE2025 and #Beijing for a perfect conference and adventure! I loved presenting my work, getting inspired by talks (especially Molly Przeworski and Qiaomei Fu 😍), and meeting cool scientists (@huizhentan.bsky.social🦤) with @rutvirajpara.bsky.social🧣 and @danatyermakovich.bsky.social 🍵🫖🗿

Indian govt is pushing a mega project in rainforests that are home to two tribal communities: Nicobarese and Shompen. This is happening even while there has never been a systematic effort to map tribal lands. Project docs too fail to acknowledge their existence www.thenewsminute.com/news/great-n...

This Mother’s Day, I cherished time with my mother, my kids, and Mother Earth. There’s something deeply grounding about fresh soil when life gets too busy or overwhelming. 🥰🙏💚 Even Berta the dog knows it! 🐾 #MothersDay #SlowLiving #MomLife #Grounding #Labrador

For some reason, on Earth Day, I was reminded of my great role model, Dr. Suzanne Simard. I went to check her channel – and surprise! – she’s giving a talk tonight! So exciting! I was lucky enough to meet her last year 😍 🌍🌲💚 #EarthDay #SuzanneSimard #MotherTree #WomenInScience #Inspiration

🇮🇳As I write in my thesis the part about India's genetic history, my talented friend @rutvirajpara.bsky.social drew me a picture of Saraswati - a goddess of wisdom, learning, and the arts - as a birthday gift. Feels like she’s watching over my footnotes now 🙏 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

When our paper about Kiritimati got accepted, on the very same week, the local cinema decided to show a film about Kiribati. I feel like the universe is trying to make sure I pronounce it right. 😄🌴🧬🎥 I helped to make a layman summary about it: genomics.ut.ee/en/news/stud...

Happy 107th Independence Day, #Estonia! 🇪🇪 Somehow, all the pictures that I took today, were blue-black-white 🤷‍♀️

Did you know? 🧬 #IBD analysis can tell apart sibling-sibling and parent-child pairs by how their DNA segments are arranged! Had an interesting week long #ancientDNA imputation workshop with amazing prof Toomas Kivisild, Dr Ludovica Molinaro and Sara Becelaere from #Leuven University, Belgium.

Celebrating Darwin’s birthday the best way possible–by playing Evolution! 🎉 This game always impresses me with how seamlessly its mechanics work together while also simulating evolution with remarkable accuracy without losing the fun!

Big thanks to Erik Abner for an engaging talk on evolution, fossils and genes—plus a signed copy of the hottest book in Santa’s bag last Christmas on Estonian fossils and beautiful star-shaped crinoid stem pieces! 🔥📖⭐ Now even more excited to go fossil hunting on 💚Vilsandi💚 Island! 🗿🦕🪸 #Fossils
