Enthralled to see our work published in Science. This wouldn’t have been possible without the wonderful contributions of the team comprising @moorjani_priya @IasiLeonardo @benmpeter @SkovLaurits @MatejaHajdi Alba science.org/doi/10.1126/scie…

Neanderthal ancestry through time: Insights from genomes of ancient and present-day humans

Gene flow from Neanderthals has shaped genetic and phenotypic variation in modern humans. We generated a catalog of Neanderthal ancestry segments in more than 300 genomes spanning the past 50,000...

The first paper is a systematic survey of Neandertal ancestry through time; a joint effort with @moorjani_priya ’s lab at UC Berkeley, co-led by @IasiLeonardo and @M_Chintalapati. Leo has a great summary of our main findings here:

Out today in @sciencemagazine, we've journeyed into our shared history with Neandertals by analyzing over 300 present-day and ancient modern humans, including 59 individuals who lived between 2,000 and 45,000 years ago. science.org/doi/10.1126/scie…

What better way to celebrate your #NobelPrize than being grabbed by your colleagues & thrown into your Institute's pond?😂At #MedicineNobelPrize Winner Svante Pääbo's @MPI_EVA_Leipzig, scientific success is traditionally celebrated w/ a quick *voluntary* bath!😉🌊@maxplanckpress

Check out our review about signals & methods to estimate present-day DNA contamination in ancient DNA datasets! @kay_pruefer and I hoped to provide a clear overview of available methods and highlight potential avenues for future development #BioEssays onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

Present‐Day DNA Contamination in Ancient DNA Datasets

To ensure that ancient DNA studies yield valid results, it is crucial to quantify present-day DNA contamination. The signals and methods that can be used to estimate the proportion of contamination...
