Hominin fossils discovered in Morocco, which have been dated to about 773,000 years ago, may be close ancestors of modern humans. The findings, published in Nature, provide insights into African populations before the earliest known Homo sapiens. 🏺🧪

Delighted to share our new paper about Pliobates!! Its radius shows apelike adaptations providing interesting clues about the locomotor evolution of catarrhines. Find it here!👇🏽 www.cell.com/iscience/ful...

Congrats @fabioalfieri2.bsky.social & colleagues!!

Interesting new publication on the genomes of living apes, suggesting the split between humans and chimps is more recent than previously thought. “Our analyses dated the human–chimpanzee split between 5.5 and 6.3 million years ago (Ma; minimum to maximum estimate of divergence)” 🏺🧪

🔬 RECERCA AMB IGUALTAT 📊 El 40,4 % de les dones han patit assetjament sexual o per raó de sexe. També a la recerca. 🔍 Comentaris sexistes, gestos insinuants, dificultats per promocionar… Són conductes estructurals, no casos aïllats. 👉https://f.mtr.cool/wgjfbuhtty

📚 Biaixos en la ciència 🔎 Menys cites d’autores, preguntes de recerca esbiaixades, mostres poc representatives… 💡 Incorporar la perspectiva de gènere no és opcional: és ciència de qualitat. 🌍 Fem visible l’invisible 🔗https://f.mtr.cool/phjzlrpyor #SomCERCA #RecercaAmbIgualtat
