The @universityofotago.bsky.social Palaeogenetics Lab is rebranding!!! While we started in 2013 just doing ancient DNA, we are now very much a deep-time palaeoecology lab. From now on, we will be known as the Ancient Ecology Lab Mātai Hauropi Tawhito. 1/5 🧵

Hello everyone,
Are you interested in news about research findings, jobs, PhD positions, etc, from the Centre for Palaeogenetics?
Or do you simply want to see lots of cool photos from our work (like the 28,000 year old cave lion cub below)?
If yes, please give @cpgsthlm.bsky.social a follow!
