Check this thread about our latest paper, written by one of the lead authors, @officialernst.bsky.social. It was such an exciting project!
It was such a pleasure to talk about our woolly rhino ancient DNA research 🧬⌛ on @livingonearthradio.bsky.social
Congratulations @amandalindahl.bsky.social and team, so glad to be part of this super interesting research 🐻⌛🧬

@gog1693.bsky.social behind-the-scenes story on his paper has EVERYTHING!

How does development shape the variation evolution can act on?
In our new paper in @pnas.org , we bridge developmental dynamics and quantitative genetics, linking dynamical models of phenotype formation with the statistical parameters used to study evolutionary change

We have received a lot of media interest, and it has been a real pleasure to engage with a lot of wonderful science communicators. Thanks to @genomebiolevol.bsky.social for collating great examples of this coverage. This coverage includes very positive opinions from academics we respect a lot (2/n)
Scientists have sequenced the genome of the long-extinct woolly rhinoceros from remains found in the stomach of a naturally mummified Pleistocene wolf pup
So proud that this is out 🐺⏳🧬🦏. First paper as a senior author (co-shared with @lovedalen.bsky.social; thanks for a great opportunity) and led by my awesome former MSc student @solveiggudjonsd.bsky.social and a brilliant CPG postdoc @edanalord.bsky.social (1/n)

Scientists have sequenced the genome of the long-extinct woolly rhinoceros from remains found in the stomach of a naturally mummified Pleistocene wolf pup
Very excited to share our study of an ancient environmental genome extracted from lake sediment! It originates from a brown bear that lived around 9,600 years ago close to the last ice-sheet remains in northern Sweden, and has an unexpected mitochondrial haplogroup. 1/7 www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...
Woolly rhino DNA was found preserved in the belly of a wolf pup in Siberia, giving scientists a rare glimpse into how these animals lived 14,000 years ago. @jcchacond.bsky.social www.loe.org/shows/segmen...
Check out our bear-y cool paper about Scandinavian brown bears published today in Royal Society Open Science!🐻 More about it in the thread🧵 @cpgsthlm.bsky.social

The recent article on wholly rhino ancient genomics by Guðjónsdóttir, @jcchacond.bsky.social et al. has received plenty of attention in the media.
