Had a great time co-hosting @scislamCA's event last evening loosely channeling Ms. Frizzle vibe.

Thanks for the great pic @PhyPsyFilm!

I wanna give a big shout out to @scislamCA for organizing an amazing night of slam, especially to Alison and Hal for hosting the event!

Event organizers rarely get the recognition they deserve but they have made pivotal contributions to #sciencecommunication and #stemeducation!

Slam From Your Cam!

Our next event is a virtual, Canada-wide Science Slam on May 10.

We're still recruiting Slammers so if you feel more comfy sharing your science via computer than on a stage, this is the event for you: https://t.co/DG6yABWz1e

Thank you @SFU_Science for putting on such a fabulous event to help bridge the gap between the exciting science recognized by the @NobelPrize Committee and our society which it profoundly impacts.

I've done my best to summarize this event in this 🧵.

🤯 Excited to learn!🤯

Follow this 🧵 for my live-tweeting of this event starting now!

Throughout his career, Dr. Pääbo contributed extensively to both the methodology and understanding of 'recent' human evolution history including sequencing the first neanderthal DNA.

This work suggested that neanderthals did not contribute mitochondrial DNA to modern humans 🤯!
