First half of 2025: Started a PhD, worked on some articles… and spent the last 8 months ‘co-authoring’ my biggest project yet: a baby boy. On maternity leave now, waiting for his arrival 💙

University life during the two most popular vacation weeks! It’s a desert 🏜️ at least I have @sofiefh.bsky.social for lunch company ❤️

Yesterday I presented my MA thesis work from last year at the 6th Nordic Zooarchaeology Meeting at Moesgaard in Aarhus. Wonderful first experience presenting at a conference as a PhD student. Looking forward to one more day of zooarch fun! 🦴🐾

First announcement: April 2024 we organize in Groningen an international conference on Transformations during the Mesolithic and Neolithic. More info and webaddress on flyer/poster. Please share! #mesolithic #neolithic

Feel so lucky to have these fluffy friends roaming around just next to my office space at #Moesgård. Quite idyllic I must say 🐂🌷

Kiel presentation over and done with! ❤️🌱 What an enjoyable session today, with lots of perspective on submerged landscapes. I call these pictures: 1) plant nerd gesticulates wildly and 2) is academia wildly biased against short people 😂

I'm on route to Gothenburg to give a seminar on our work exploring the role and relevance of stranded whales in the Late Palaeolithic along the European margins. Preliminary results out here doi.org/10.1080/1556... with @shumon.bsky.social, @sofiefh.bsky.social et al. but we've got more coming :)

Spent a few days with my great colleagues at Clioarch @auarcher.bsky.social talking about science and life, going for walks in these beautiful surroundings and lastly, eating a lot of food. Lovely!

Calling all #archaeologists working with #datasets. I am wondering what software to use for building my database. I currently use Excel, but I would like to hear what others have had success with using. (% Microsoft Access though). 1/2

I hope everyone had a great Christmas 🎄 This year, my Christmas became a bit more festive, as I got the news that I will be starting my #PhD journey at Aarhus University next year, supervised by @felixthehauskat.bsky.social @brusgaard.bsky.social & Jacob Kveiborg. Can’t wait! 🎓🎉

Today, not one, but two(!!) articles about my latest paper about children, toys and innovation have been published online

@support.bsky.team @bsky.app for some reason I disappear from starter packs here on Bluesky shortly after I am added.. Could you please help me getting this fixed?? #help #techissue #StarterPacks

The early winter mornings just keep getting better and better 🌅

We had heard about the challenges posed by motherhood within academia, but what about the previous stage? @ecfreewoman.bsky.social & I wrote our story for @science.org on how the academic system makes it almost impossible for women to even plan for a family ❤️‍🩹: www.science.org/content/arti...

Are you working in early Prehistory, Geoarchaeology or Quaternary Science in North West Europe. If so let me know if you want to be added to this starter pack of great researchers. 🦣 🏺

Now also with a starter-pack for Danish archaeology. Share and comment if you want to join. For all archaeologist from or working within Denmark. go.bsky.app/9SiLkC9

Hi everyone! It’s nice to get yet another platform to interact with the scientific community beyond the formal emails. Let me start with a thread where I introduce myself and give a short recap of what I do! I’m Sofie, 27, happily married and currently living in Aarhus.
