Happy to announce that our study examining the genetic history of the Qimmeq (Greenland Sled Dog) came out today in Science. @mhssinding.bsky.social #qimmeq #dogs #palaeogenetics #greenland #greenlandsleddog @science.org #Ilisimatusarfik #globeinstitute #ucph #nih

Am extremely excited and deeply grateful to receive a DFF Sapere Aude Research Leader grant! Looking forward to immersing myself in research, collaboration and new adventures in the genetic intersection between wolves and dogs. Thanks Independent Research Fund Denmark! dff.dk/hvad-har-vi-...

Really fascinating bit of work on #genetics of #Greenland - it really demonstrates why it's important to include people from diverse origins in genetic databases, but more importantly, it's also about HOW to include indigenous people in research + data sovreignty. : www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Genetic architecture in Greenland is shaped by demography, structure and selection - Nature
We illustrate that including data from Greenlandic Inuit can greatly reduce inequity in genomic-based healthcare in Greenland and other indigenous Arctic populations.

Ice Age meets gene editing meets #aDNA Pre-print on "woolly mice" doesn't appear to be live yet, but here's media coverage (with a cautious quote from a wrongly-affiliated me). www.technologyreview.com/2025/03/04/1...

De-extinction scientists say these gene-edited ‘woolly mice’ are a step toward woolly mammoths
The animals, the first to have been created by Colossal Biosciences, have fluffy coats and curly whiskers.

Hello Bluesky - Some wonderful news! Based on our research, the Greenland sled dog has been listed in Guinness Book of Records as one of the world's oldest dog breeds, it has been a privilege to be a part of! www.guinnessworldrecords.com/world-record... Long live Qimmeq!🐕 (the Greenland sled dog)
