@naturalice.bsky.social is now on Erasmus at Linnaeus University in Kalmar, Sweden, working with Prof. Markus Zöttl to study telomere dynamics in mole-rats. Here’s a great shot by Yannick Francioli of one of the target species—science abroad never looked so cute!

@gnomoboleto.bsky.social hosted a super fun owl pellet workshop today! Owl pellets are regurgitated balls of indigestible material like bones, fur, and feathers. We found a few different voles and frogs in ours today.

Wrapped up an amazing public outreach event at UW! Our lab ran a hands-on workshop on aDNA for #DOKO —starting with a lecture by @naturalice.bsky.social and then some real lab work with Gabriela and @kaaviya.bsky.social Introducing aDNA to curious minds! #ScienceForEveryone

At this week's #LPCGJournalClub, @martynamolak.bsky.social from Max Planck, Leipzig, shared fascinating plots tracing the genetics of Polish people. Nearly 300 ancient samples have been analyzed—so, was there a 'Chinese' migrant in Bronze Age Poland? We’ll find out soon!
