Recuerdo con emoción los viajes de muestreo y la impresión de ver por primera vez la inmensidad de la colección del INAH en Santa Lucía 🤩🦣. Es un verdadero privilegio haber sido parte del proyecto. Felicidades a todo el equipo! Se rifaron! 🫰🏽

Mammoths’ genomes from Mexico? 🦣🇲🇽🧬 Yes! And you can find the full story here 🤩-> shorturl.at/xjIvy Congrats to all the authors!

We have arrived in Turin for @isba11.bsky.social and are very excited for the week! Don't miss the following talks and posters from the Welker Group:

Ready for #ISBA11 meeting. Starting with the pre-conference #PAASTA 🤩 and the welcoming. It’s already being great to connect with peers from Huerta-Sánchez lab @lindaongaro.bsky.social @marcocapo.bsky.social and more (not all in this network). And remember to visit me at my poster No.254 on Friday.

Our paper on the evolution of MUC19 in humans, Neanderthals, and Denisovans is finally out today in Science!

This has been a six-year effort by 13 authors to weave together 3 separate but related evolutionary stories around this one gene (more on thread 🧵).

See you in Copenhagen next year, #SMBE2026 🚴🏽‍♀️🧜🏼‍♀️🇩🇰🎉

Glad to see my former colleagues #mexas 🇲🇽 in #SMBE2025

#SMBE2025 China was great. Last keynote by Qiaomei Fu closed with a final flourish.

Watch this out 🤩
I am glad to have contributed to this piece #palaeoproteomics
Thanks @zandraselina.bsky.social and @fridowelker.bsky.social for the trust, and congratulations to all the co-authors
