An unforgettable experience for our lab! 🧬✨We had the privilege to meet Dr. Svante Pääbo, Nobel Prize winner in Medicine 2022 for his pioneering work on the Neanderthal genome. 🧬It was an incredible opportunity to discuss our research with him.

Our latest research in PLOS ONE explores how weathering and burial processes impact stone tool residues in temperate environments. It features the first biweekly monitoring of residue weathering over a year and a long-term burial analysis. 🌱🗓️ buff.ly/48ffQOS
