We are very excited to share our research showing the potential of #archaeometabolomics to reveal past phenotypes, here #tobacco use. We hope to next track how this relates to tobacco use rates and disease prevalence in the past! Watch this space. #archaeology #archsci #History.
A new analysis of archaeological remains finds changes linked to tobacco usage in cortical bone. This metabolic record makes it possible to identify tobacco use in individual remains even without visible markers. @SarahAInskip @TobacHistory

Welcome to @valentinity_89 to the THH project. Valentina is carrying out research on cementum analysis on the teeth of known smokers in collaboration with @NickJakubovics, @DrRichHolliday and Team. We are looking forward to seeing the result!.
Normal people: "Dental histology. After all this time?".Me: "Always".💖💖💖. #dentalhistology .#histology #teeth #lifeafterphd #microscopy

Yesterday, the team visited Kori Filipek at Derby to sample post-med sailors as part of our collaboration to understand past #tobacco use, staining and damage to teeth. Tobacco pipe use, became strongly associated with sailor identity in this period. #archaeology #history

Excellent work by @maiacasna an affiliate of the @TobacHistory project. We are currently investigating the relationship between #tobacco use and sinusitis, so valuable stuff here 👇.
📣Excited to share our latest paper comparing endoscopic and radiological techniques for diagnosing #chronicmaxillarysinusitis in archaeological skeletal remains! 💀 .It is published #openaccess, so check it out!.

Very happy to be presenting early #metabolomic results @ukas2024. Discussing the risk that tobacco use was for inflammation on the skeleton for rural communities.
Amazing talk from @SarahAInskip on archaeometabolomic identification of tobacco use @TobacHistory 🚬👩🔬💀
