🚨Thrilled to share our new paper!!
We were able to retrieve ancient DNA and proteins from layers of sediment attached to the skeletal remains of individuals from a Neolithic site from Southern Italy 💀🧬🦠

So glad to have such brilliant friends ♥️
I had the huge opportunity to share the preliminary results of my research project during the "ancient biomolecules and museums" session at ISBA11. What a great honor! 🥰
