Graphs. Start May 2026 (flexible). Apply here: emploi.cnrs.fr/Offres/CDD/U...

I will be recruiting two PhDs for my ERC Project HERDPATH - let's discover out how livestock and pathogens evolved together using #aDNA. Projects will be animal or pathogen focused but will be in dialogue. Details at my quaint website below. Deadline 3rd October. kevingdaly.github.io

🌾 Agriculture didn’t always spread with mobility of people. New ancient DNA research shows that in western Anatolia, while communities stayed put, farming and village life spread through the movement of ideas and practices.

📰 News Recherche Une équipe de @unil.bsky.social @sib.swiss METU, @hacettepe.bsky.social met en lumière la manière dont les premiers modes de vie agricoles se sont diffusés - et comment, parfois, les idées ont voyagé plus loin que les individus. ➡️ www.unil.ch/news/1750772... @dilekopter.bsky.social

🧬In Neolithic Çatalhöyük, family was built on social relations rather than blood ties. Genetic analysis shows that over time, co-residents were no longer genetic relatives. Female subadults were buried with 5x more grave goods. 🔍A surprising story of Neolithic social life.

I didn’t know much about the Neolithic, neither had I ever heard the saying « pots don’t equal people ». Well that changed, thanks to a real fun interview with @dilekopter.bsky.social and her colleagues behind this study (text also available in English, see comments) 👇 #archaeology #paleogenomics

Happy to share our new study from my PhD on the spread of farming across Anatolia and into the Aegean and then into Europe. @compevohumang.bsky.social www.science.org/doi/10.1126/... 👇🏽

Check out our new paper! We studied reference bias in ancient genomes and proposed bamRefine, a new algorithm for PMD-correction. We showed that graph alignment + bamRefine is the most practical solution to mitigate bias, and we urge the community to publish raw data! doi.org/10.1186/s130...
