Wir freuen uns sehr, dass Klaus Blaum, Christian Doeller und Johannes Krause in diesem Jahr mit Leibniz-Preisen geehrt werden. Die #LeibnizPreise der DFG gelten als wichtigste deutsche Forschungspreise. 👏 @dfg.de

#AminoAcidAdvent Day 1: Proline The kinkiest of amino acids (NSFW!), synthesized from glutamic acid, and some even call it the simplest "enzyme". Regardless, its a pro move to include the hydroxyproline variable mod if your abundant proteins have collagen domains... really, do this.

seafront-project.com/post/calibra... Largest dataset on Mg/Ca in shells yet (+100 and over a dozen sites)🐚 Again, we found tightly correlated but shell-specific relationships between temperature and Mg/Ca. Lots of potential for future archaeological studies🏺 @leizarchaeology.bsky.social

New findings in Science offer insights into Wyoming’s “dinosaur mummies,” revealing that the stunningly preserved skin, spikes, and hooves of duck-billed dinosaurs are not fossilized flesh at all, but delicate clay molds formed by microbes as the creatures decayed. https://scim.ag/47DYjBi

And that was it, the 11th @icaz-news.bsky.social AGPM meeting here in Copenhagen is over! Lots of interesting talks and posters on genetics, proteomics and morphometrics in zooarchaeological reseeach, with attendees from 5 different continents! Thanks to everyone for such an enjoyable meeting :).

📄 New paper 📣 of @matrixerc.bsky.social & @welkergroup.bsky.social! We show that microstratigraphic-scale #paleoproteomics works in intact sediments - opening new ways to explore ancient ecosystems & hominin behaviour 🌍🦴 @erc.europa.eu @icarehb.bsky.social 🔗 academic.oup.com/pnasnexus/ar...

Palaeoproteomics goes micro! In our latest publication, we demonstrate that taxonomic identifications can be obtained using shotgun proteomic approaches on microscopic bone fragments in resin-embedded sediment blocks!

Thanks to @isbarchaeology.bsky.social and @isba11.bsky.social for a great conference. I mentioned the legacy of Henk Kars of VU who established ISBA Geoarchaeology closed. Here is the link to the petition to save Earth Sciences @vuamsterdam.bsky.social www.change.org/p/red-aardwe...

Ready for #ISBA11 meeting. Starting with the pre-conference #PAASTA 🤩 and the welcoming. It’s already being great to connect with peers from Huerta-Sánchez lab @lindaongaro.bsky.social @marcocapo.bsky.social and more (not all in this network). And remember to visit me at my poster No.254 on Friday.

Are you interested in doing a PhD in Copenhagen? Interested in studying Neanderthals and Denisovans which live on in our genomes? Than you are more than welcome to apply to join my group starting Jan 2026 :) candidate.hr-manager.net/ApplicationI... Please reach out if you have any questions!

We have arrived in Turin for @isba11.bsky.social and are very excited for the week! Don't miss the following talks and posters from the Welker Group:
