Six 4.5-year postdoc research fellowships in our new Centre for the Sciences of Place and Memory, University of Stirling, central Scotland! Please circulate this ad for outstanding researchers to work with me in an interdisciplinary team https://t.co/JGVzB2aRvX (closing 6 Oct).
I got my PhD for a negative result, I even managed to publish it.
Finding out your hypothesis was wrong is still a hard-won contribution to knowledge, which requires all the same skills as a positive result. Nothing to be upset or ashamed about!
#philippinearchaeology says our final goodbyes to Victor J. Paz, one of the pillars of our discipline, at his wake tomorrow and Tuesday (at his home). He has mentored countless students who are now our archaeologists (including me). He will be missed.

Despite the importance of nonhuman primates, reference genomes have been sequenced in <10% of species.
A Science study presents high-quality reference genomes for 27 primate species, adding to available resources. https://t.co/Ipq5XSb7vn #PrimateGenomes
14,000 years ago, illuminated by animal fat lamps, two bison were expertly modelled in wet clay in the dark recesses of Le Tuc d'Audoubert cave in southwest France. The bison still show the markings traced by the sculptor’s fingernails #IceAgeHumans

Grün & Stringer 2023: Direct dating of human fossils and the ever-changing story of human evolution [though still a few uncorrected glitches e.g. caption for Fig. 85 should explain 'Colours of the stars indicate the region of origin'] https://t.co/uiCFvtoBGc
New paper out in PNAS for @PaleontoM@isemevol. Romain Weppe and colleagues found that climatic factors, and not interspecies competition, likely drove a major turnover in ungulate species in Europe around 34 million years ago at the so called the “Grande Coupure”.

Yay- a new proteomics-based species identification method. Probably too expensive for thousands of samples but great if you’ve got an LC MS/MS near you: COL1A2 Barcoding: Bone Species Identification via Shotgun Proteomics | Journal of Proteome Research https://t.co/ETpImIMykw
