Recently enjoyed creating an illustration about @yulinzhang.bsky.social’s and @aabiddanda.github.io’s exciting work in Science, out this week. Check out the write up from UC Berkeley News featuring my drawing and detailing the research! news.berkeley.edu/2026/07/30/n...

New technique pinpoints human DNA inherited from ‘ghost’ ancestors - Berkeley News

Neanderthals and Denisovans interbred with modern human ancestors, leaving behind telltale DNA in our genomes. Now we have evidence of modern human interbreeding with two much older but unknown ancest...

Good news! Our paper (with @aabiddanda.github.io @sarahaj34.bsky.social @codushlaine.bsky.social and Priya Moorjani) is now officially online! www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

Recovering signatures of archaic hominin introgression using ancestral recombination graphs

Admixture between modern humans and extinct hominins has shaped the genomes of present-day individuals, but reconstructing this history has been constrained by the scarcity of archaic samples and unad...
