Our new study is out! We analysed 40 Malaise trap samples collected across Sweden by the Insect Biome Atlas project using #metabarcoding and #metagenomics onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/... @cpgsthlm.bsky.social @tvdvalk.bsky.social
Small Bugs, Big Data: Metagenomics for Arthropod Biodiversity Monitoring
We used metagenomic sequencing of 40 bulk arthropod samples collected across Sweden to classify taxa and compare results with metabarcoding from the same samples. While metabarcoding was more sensiti...

So excited this is happening! See you next year in Stockholm! 😎
Centre for Palaeogenetics@cpgsthlm.bsky.social · last yr.We're thrilled to announce that the FIRST International Conference on Palaeogenomics will happen in Stockholm, Sweden, June 23-26 2026! Topics will span from humans to wildlife and sediments 🧬🦣💀🦠 bring it on! Save the dates! Follow @palaeogenomics.bsky.social for news 👉icp2026.palaeogenomics.org
Short blog I wrote about being a researcher in “Låna en forskare” (borrow a researcher). Such a cool opportunity! #ForskarFredag

Halfway there!! Had a fantastic post-seminar feedback discussion with @anitajnorman.bsky.social @indianadiez.bsky.social Francisco Almada and @tvdvalk.bsky.social Thanks all! Hyped for what’s next! 😎
Centre for Palaeogenetics@cpgsthlm.bsky.social · 2y agoCongrats to Samantha López Clinton for the successful half-time PhD seminar 🎉
At Stockholm University, we are now starting a 2-year Master’s programme in Evolutionary Genomics! Topics include population genetics, phylogenetics, molecular & genome evolution, DNA sequencing, bioinformatics, and palaeogenetics. Please spread the word! www.su.se/english/sear...
▪️ Open postdoc position ▪️ 🔎🧬🐘 I'm recruiting a postdoc to work with me on mapping the genomic legacy of the elephant ivory trade in Europe using ancient DNA. Hosted by Lund University 🇸🇪 with Bengt Hansson Please RT! Info and apply here: lu.varbi.com/en/what:job/...
🧬🐭🐴🐻Job Alert🐻🐴🐭🧬 We are hiring 3 postdoctoral researchers in DeepTime Palaeogenomics! All positions are for 2 years (extension possible), & are fully funded both in terms of employment and project costs. Deadline: 2 Dec 2024 Please RT! Apply: www.su.se/english/abou...
Asked my fellow scientists if they had any props to lend to me for #ForskarFredag and I got so many cool things that I’ve had to move them around in a suitcase. Now back to planning the talks for around 250 students across Sweden! #ScienceCommunication #LånaEnForskare https://t.co/wIvsviy781
‼️Just one week left to submit your “idea for IDEA” in 800 words or less 😎 Please RT! Reach out if you have questions, we’re happy to help. #Grants #Funding #DEI @OfficialSMBE @SMBE_IDEA @SMBEmeetings https://t.co/3KBerpKRXF
Planning #forskarfredag talks for #lånaenforskare week! I’ll be giving talks (in person and zoom) at 10 different schools in Sweden about life as a researcher at @CpgSthlm, collecting monkey 💩 with @Field_Projects, and why DNA is so cool! 🧬 So chuffed to be part of this. https://t.co/JeridrQ9N3
Llévele llévele! Dos semanas más para meter tu aplicación y recibir hasta 25 mil dólares para proyectos IDEA! Revisa las bases en el link, retwittéanos y/o pasa la voz! Every little helps :) https://t.co/LBQyuvZyYa

As I mentioned then, I joined the task force as a MSc student; we don’t need to be established researchers to get involved! Reach out if you’re thinking of joining or have an idea to improve IDEA (Inclusion, Diversity, Equity, Access) in our SMBE society! ⬇️
I cannot express how meaningful it was to me to have a space to talk about our IDEA work in an international conference of such importance, hosted in not just my home-country, but my home state of Jalisco. ¡Gracias!
Yesterday I had the honour of representing @SMBE_IDEA during the symposium at #SMBE2024 I started with a quote from #EZLN: “We need to make a new world. A world where many worlds fit, where all worlds fit.” https://t.co/l951V410Qf
Floored by the posters at #SMBE2024 yesterday and today. The science, the design, the delivery… Just look at this gorgeous poster by Walter Nicolás-Ortega! (Also I love hearing both English, Spanish, and Spanglish walk-throughs of posters!) @LIIGH_UNAM @paleogenomics https://t.co/9mVtYGWh0r
