According to Google Scholar, this paper has just recived it's 100th citation - not bad for a theory paper! https://t.co/ZhK49sKSz2 And especially nice as it was a bit of pig to get published @sunderdown

@DrCJ_Houldcroft That journal that turned it down can continue to do one! 🤣

Got to love @evrisupportline you tried to deliver my parcel at 1226 (not the 1900-2100 slot you emailed me). I’m in and the ‘photo evidence’ is clearly in the back of a van surrounded by other parcels….

@kevinhatala @ScienceMagazine Awesome stuff Kevin! @DrCJ_Houldcroft and I have suggested H erectus and P Boisei would have met (in more ways than one) based on Herpes Simplex Virus DNA so this is reallt cool!! https://t.co/EHC1IA4Pns

@sunderdown And more recently about the potential for high mortality among ancient hunter-gatherers even from 'common' infectious diseases https://t.co/bYQfD2iyHk

[Dr Charlotte Houldcroft @DrCJ_Houldcroft]

@sunderdown & I have thought for years that the role of infectious diseases before agriculture needs more consideration https://t.co/W4czLVaxpu

[Dr Charlotte Houldcroft @DrCJ_Houldcroft]

Fascinating new pre-print on very early plague (Y. pestis) causing high mortality among hunter-gatherers https://t.co/VF2QV9jayD I shall have to rewrite some lecture notes!
