Measurement underpins all science. Yet, in microbiome studies, subtle differences in lab protocols can profoundly alter results. In our new study, we compare DNA extraction and library prep methods to assess their impact on ancient oral microbiome recovery. Our results show that no single approach

Wanted to (re-)share that I will be presenting at #Nutrition2025. I will discuss how early-life risk factors for infant rapid weight gain may be linked to the gut microbiome. My presentation will take place this Saturday.

In my case. I guess we built the ‘minimal’ aDNA lab. With good results and neglectable levels of modern DNA contamination. An order of magnitude cheaper than GN aDNA labs. aDNA libraries built in this lab ended up in these papers:

I’m excited to share my latest review paper! As someone with a Classics background, it’s been an incredible journey to come full circle and contribute a resource that bridges the gap between classicists and bioarchaeologists.

As the prophets shed the light on what's to come the crowds did gather
Your time is precious, they explained, no time to worry, messiah's coming
Don't go to sleep tonight, darling, hold me in your arms
These will be our final days and I can't let go

Super thankful for the resurrection of the #texasfootball #texasam rivalry game. I was so disappointed when I heard the aggies were going to the SEC in 2011 knowing that I would start my first year at UT in 2012. www.si.com/college-foot...
Texas, Texas A&M Renew Rivalry As Bitter SEC Foes After 13-Year Hiatus
The feud between the teams started in 1894 then ran uninterrupted from World War I until a memorable 2011 game and a bitter realignment-driven split.
