It was great to visit the @salkinstitute.bsky.social for this amazing CARTA symposium on aDNA. Thanks @anthropogeny.org for the invitation! (and for the position at USC for one day 😜) www.youtube.com/live/HM9EhCE...

Hi Bluesky! My lab has recently moved to Mexico City, so we are starting a new era of the Moreno Lab! Still at Cinvestav Research Center but brand new building, new projects, and lots of possibilities for LATAM ahead! 🇲🇽 🌎
