Reposting my repost because I was a bit flippant given I’m on this paper riding the coattails of supreme molecular palaeopathologist @poojaswali.bsky.social . Let me tell you it was a lorra lorra work, most of which was totally over my head.
Ancient plague is out.
Ancient relapsing fever is what it’s about now.
Ancient relapsing fever is what it’s about now.
Excited to announce our paper on ancient Borrelia genomes is finally out! 🦠💀We document the evolutionary history of louse-borne relapsing fever, published today in @science.org with @lucyvandorp.bsky.social and @pontus-skoglund.bsky.social #aDNA 🏺🧪🧬

Hi everyone! I have been on Bluesky for a bit, but haven't been too active, and now it has rather exploded! Figured I should introduce myself a bit better. I'm a #bioarchaeologist, #dental_anthropologist, #bioanthropologist, #human_osteologist, #palaeodemography, #palaeopathologist

I'm literally a palaeopathologist and we literally have data to support this. It's not gibberish; it's empirical fact. It's not academia's or science's problem or by extension my problem that you don't understand data.
