Thank you for an amazing UK Archaeological Science Conference @ogu-bristol.bsky.social!
I was delighted to be awarded 2nd prize for my presentation "Optimising Protease Strategies for Detecting Ancient Viral Proteins" 🧪 #palaeoproteomics
Can't wait for next time!

The influence of fragmentation on a combined ZooMS and zooarchaeological study at Geißenklösterle Cave in the Swabian Jura, Southwestern Germany Geißenklösterle Cave, a Palaeolithic site located in the Swabian Jura of southern Germany, has yielded multiple Middle Palaeolithic strata and some of…

Our new paper is out!
If you love caves, if you love archaeology, if you love ZooMS (and let's be honest, who doesn't?!) you'll LOVE this! #palaeoproteomics #ancientproteins #archaeology #ZooMS

🎨 The goal of this graphic article is to provide a brief introduction to the methods of biomolecular archaeology, especially as they can be applied within #medieval studies. We cover: ☠️ #osteology & #ethics ⚛️ #isotopes 🧬 #aDNA 🧪 #palaeoproteomics 🏺 #organicresidues 👩‍🔬 #metabolomics

Why is AAR (Amino Acid Racemisation; by implication #palaeoproteomics) so often overlooked for #geochronology?

📣Paper alert📣 Is it possible to use #palaeoproteomics to identify the taxonomy of bone fragments in resin-embedded sediment blocks, enabling study of past faunal community composition at a microstratigraphic scale? 🦴🐮 🦌 We decided to test this, and the results are now out: doi.org/10.1093/pnas...

I can highly recommend for #palaeoproteomics ECRs to nominate themselves to the PAASTA steering committee, I have loved being part of shaping the direction of this community and supporting various ideas and projects for the last two years! 😊

MALDI Deamidation Score (MDS): A Fast and Flexible Method for Assessing Deamidation in ZooMS Data and Its Application to the Denisova Cave Bone Assemblage Estimating deamidation from MALDI-TOF MS spectra of bones has most frequently been achieved using the q2e method due to its high-throughput capacity and ease of use. Despite this accessibility, q2e is...

Looking for a new approach to quantification of #deamidation in your MALDI-TOF data? Then you need to check out our new preprint!!! Fei Yang will be speaking about it at ISBA11_Torino tomorrow in Methods 5 at 16:00! #palaeoproteomics www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Today's the day! I can't wait to hear what all these amazing #palaeoproteomics ECRs are working on 🧪🏺

We are approaching conference season! We are currently preparing 9 presentations for 4 conferences, and look forward to sharing some of our first COEXIST project results, and more! #archsci #Palaeoproteomics #ZooMS #Zooarchaeology 🧪🦣

I'm so proud to see this paper published! Hopefully, it can inspire a positive change in the field of #palaeoproteomics, through open science and researchers working together instead of against each other. Huge thanks and congrats to all coauthors! 🎉

I had the opportunity to interview @matthewcollins.bsky.social on his recent visit to @cenieh.bsky.social. The podcast is out now! It's a fun chat about #palaeoproteomics and the ways we can study ancient #proteins at Atapuerca! Thanks Matthew for the chat! www.ivoox.com/en/paleoprot...

Scientists could be accidentally damaging fossils with a method we thought was safe A common scanning method used to create ‘virtual copies’ of precious fossils could be erasing some of the crucial information held within.

The impacts of microCT on preserved proteins is something we probably need to consider in the #palaeoproteomics community as well. theconversation.com/scientists-c...

Parts of the Welker Group taking a boat ride around the canals of Copenhagen, all looking very happy!

For the last six months, we've had Lucas Siero from Utrecht University visiting us for an internship, working on some #palaeoproteomics method development. It was a joy to have you join our group Lucas, and good luck with the rest of your studies!

Phylogenetically informative proteins from an Early Miocene rhinocerotid - Nature Protein sequences from fossil tooth enamel of a rhinocerotid from Canada’s High Arctic are used to develop phylogenetic frameworks from a specimen too old to preserve ancient DNA.

Great to see this collaborative study published that recovered 20 Ma old proteins from tooth enamel of a fossil rhinocerotid!
