Based at @CEESUiO at the University of Oslo, we use aDNA to study human-induced ecological and evolutionary changes, historic trade patterns and more fun things
Fantastic day at the @bassangleruk AGM showcasing @Uni_of_Essex & @PlymUni's research projects in collaboration w/ @CefasGovUK & BASS. Genuine pleasure meeting the anglers & learning from them. Also @hannahsrudd gave an amazing talk, just wish we'd been able to see you in person!
New preprint alert🚨
We posted our reconstruction of the evolutionary history of field vole species complex. We generated more than a 100 mitochondrial and 26 nuclear genomes from ancient and modern specimens. Here is what we found, a 🧵

New herring ancient DNA preprint by @lane_atmore, with @JHBarrettArch, @archaeoRattus and many others. It remains astounding that DNA is preserved in such tiny, tiny archaeological fish bones for over 1000 years. https://t.co/7gVj8BPsPb

It’s winter. The buzzing has stopped - mostly.
So what’s happened to all the #bees?
You’ve been asking…so a quick thread to broadly account for our little #friends at this time of year.
Please #retweet and #share.
You know the drill.
The more informed the better for bees. 1/13

Last week I had an amazing opportunity at the Natural History Museum in Bergen to study an incredible collection of walrus skulls from Svalbard. I can't wait to see what we will discover about these! 😁

My lab read this paper https://t.co/6zzITMjCr2 for journal club, and had some thoughts on the strong claims made about the number of signals of selection found. 1/
Great new paper about #shark fidelity to their home reef during stressful periods by @mjw_marine. See thread below and @guardian piece on it here: 🦈🪸🌊 https://t.co/NgwFezY6wh

So excited to share this paper!
Silje Marie Kristiansen did a tremendous job, with long hours herding, counting and measuring thousands of springtails and eggs to understand
how thermal adaptation affects temperature-dependent pesticide toxicity

New paper out in PNAS.
We used paleogenomics, genetic simulations, and stable isotope analysis of 45 zooarchaeological beluga remains and compare the findings with contemporary data from modern tissue samples provided by Inuvialuit hunters. 1/4
