Our study on the genomic history of the Aegean palatial civilizations is out. #aDNA 1/n https://t.co/ah6TrUkZEm

We also find that Caucasus-like gene flow during the Neolithic and Pontic-Caspian Steppe-like gene flow during the Bronze Age has shaped the region. Present-day Greeks looked genetically more similar to 2,000 BCE Aegeans from Northern Greece. 3/n

Deeply unappreciated fact: the most "impactful" person in science right now is this Kazakhstani hacker queen. She is the one-woman bridge to the largest repository of scientific knowledge ever collected.
