#MeetTheLab @msabrysarhan.bsky.social works on his postdoc (joint w/ #EURAC) on ancient diet & microbiomes. How to overcome failure in science? I like a lot what Robert Frost said: "Two roads diverged in a wood, and I— I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference."
Always a very nice milestone: @ammarabdalrahem.bsky.social has printed his PhD thesis on reproductive mode polymorphism in the #poplar #rust #fungus. Congratulations Ammar 👏👏👏
Just got back from an amazing week at @isba11.bsky.social in Torino! Still can't believe I won the Future Fellows Prize for the best talk - what a highlight! But honestly, the best part was connecting with other Egyptian researchers in the bioarchaeology and aDNA world. @isbarchaeology.bsky.social
From one great ISBA team to the next — thank you to our past organizers for building such a strong and connected community!
And that’s a wrap! Congratulations to the entire ISBA community for a successful ISBA11!
What a week! 🎉 Big thanks to @isba11.bsky.social for hosting an incredible ISBA conference — so well organized and full of great science.
