I am delighted to see my debate article “Enthrone, Dethrone, Rethrone: The Multiple Lives of Matrilineal Kinship in Aegean Prehistory” appear in Archaeological Dialogues. Thanks to many for helping me developing this piece! It was fantastic 3 months as a fellow at @oeai.bsky.social in #Athens 2021!

🚪 A reminder of the power of open doors! I’ve written a blog about my ASciNA (Austrian Scientists and Scholars in North America) mentoring experience. Grateful to @walterscheidel.bsky.social & @univie.ac.at for helping make a difference across continents 🌍 bit.ly/4fJM0Gc

The Power of Open Doors: My Experience with the ASciNA Mentoring Program

Winning the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Global Postdoctoral Fellowship has been a major milestone in my career, allowing me to pursue research I am passionate about and relocate to Chicago…

Starting the day with a 3D printed Platia Magoula Zarkou house model, soon talking to the Field Museum Teen Volunteers about how I started in science and my current research projects. Working in a museum can be so fun! @oeaw.bsky.social @oeai.bsky.social #Anthropology #Archaeology #Kinship #Family

🙌 Exciting new study from #Anatolia published by @compevohumang.bsky.social in @science.org today! Anthropologists have long argued that kinship and family do not need to be genetically oriented. The study from Çatalhöyük wonderfully highlights this point also for Neolithic in Anatolia. Congrats!

Andrew Curry @spoke32.bsky.social · Jun 26

The nature of Neolithic society is one of the most debated topics in archaeology–a debate that's almost impossible to settle w/ conventional methods alone. Now, new DNA data from a site in Turkey called Çatalhöyük points to a significant role for women: www.science.org/content/arti... @science.org

Stone Age farmers’ households passed from mother to daughter

Moms and daughters were at the center of the family in ancient Çatalhöyük, ancient DNA and archaeological evidence suggest

Huge congratulations to all the EU researchers who got a #MarieCurie fellowship this week! An excellent way to celebrate women in science. This is the legacy of Marie Sklodowska Curie and her incredible talents.

#MSCA

Fun fact, the funding score cut off was around 95/100 points 😲
