Huge thanks to our brilliant collaborators in museums, high schools, and labs. Grateful for support from @novonordisk.bsky.social, @carlsbergfondet.dk, and @sdu.dk INTEGRA. Your contributions were essential to the development and completion of this project!

3,300+ students co-created a pipeline with teachers, museums, and us, using ZooMS and morphology to analyse 900+ leather artefacts, achieving a 95% ID success rate. We are in NGL, very happy to have seen this project develop since 2021, advancing both research and education.

While the two groups in principle are separate, there’s a strong synergy between our teams and projects. This collaboration is enriched by the diverse academic backgrounds we bring together. Attached, you see some of the people from the team! 😁

In the Brandt Group at the Globe Institute, University of Copenhagen (UCPH), and through the citizen science project Next Generation Lab (UCPH and the Natural History Museum DK), we focus on dissemination and proteomics - primarily applied to archaeological leather, fur, and osseous materials 🦴.
