Dear all, I am giving a FREE 21+public event at @AMNH next Weds, Nov 6 at 7PM with the brilliant @EliotWhiteHill all about Coast Salish woolly dogs. Community-centered research that involves science!!!! Art!!! And doggies!!!!!!! RSVP here:

📢New Yorkers! We're meeting for the second session of the 'Postdoc Night Science NYC' club on January 30th 5-7pm. This time we'll be at NYU (Washington Square campus), with the topic of 'A hypothesis is a liability'. Space is limited so please register: https://t.co/c5CoREyL7x

In this comment piece with @jfy133 and @twarinner, we highlight the mounting problems with data archiving and metadata reporting in ancient DNA research. The field cannot afford to keep neglecting this issue. https://t.co/gFm0GvtlPB

Hope to see you there! As a member of the CPN student panel, I will also be organizing social events to facilitate networking between students, postdocs, and professionals interested in conservation palaeobiology!

I’m on the blue thing, same handle as here. FYI.

On Friday 29th we will also have our monthly #AaRCTikTalks. This month Ophelie Lebrasseur will showcase her work on ancient domestic birds of Asia and South America, while @MariDehasque will showcase her awesome work on mammoth genomics.

Join us next Friday as AaRC celebrates the 40th anniversary of the first aDNA paper. See below for sign up details.

We’re thrilled to introduce the newly recognized Southeast Asian striped squirrel (Tamiops barbei)! This species is distributed across S China, N Vietnam, W Myanmar, Thailand, and W Malaysia. 🐿️📽️ https://t.co/yTPquNHmVy Video credit: @wildrecordist6586 🧵👇

“I don’t give a fuck what the Medieval Church said, he was a holy dog is what he was! he was martyred, went to heaven, and interceded before God on behalf of sick peasants who prayed to him! and in this house, St Guinefort is a good boy and a true saint! End of story!”

Fantastic first meeting of "Postdoc Night Science NYC" at @RockefellerUniv! I'm happy to have a space for postdocs to connect and chat science in a fun and low-pressure environment, and I'm excited to continue making it happen! Join us at the next meeting in Jan 2025.

New paper out by Adrian Lister (@NHM_London) and Love Dalén (@CpgSthlm): ”Mammoths, DNA and morphology” https://t.co/46gnYkYqwr

'Postdoc Night Science NYC' will meet monthly to practice the thinking tools required to identify new research questions, the benefits of interdisciplinarity, and collaborative creativity. And it's good networking! First session is this Friday! https://t.co/eYdlZaHN67 @StearnsLab

Including Indigenous sources who are experts in both Western and Indigenous science (sometimes called “two-eyed seeing”) can help synthesize those perspectives in your piece, writes @monkey_cabinet.
