"The study has revealed that the Balkans was a frontier region of ancient Rome as cosmopolitan as the imperial centre, and that Slavic migration arriving in the Balkans from the 6th century onwards represents between 30% and 60% of the ancestry of the Balkan peoples today." https://www.ehu.eus/en/web/campusa-magazine/-/ancient-balkan-genomes-reveal-how-slavic-europe-was-formed #Science #STEM #Ancient #DNA #Human #Population #Europe #Genetics #Biology @biology @science

"The present study has highlighted the gene-culture co-migration with the demographic movements that occurred during the past two millennia in Central and East Asia. Additionally, this work contributes to a better understanding of the distribution of immunogenic erythrocyte polymorphisms with a view to improve transfusion safety."

I’ve created a new list for the Life Sciences. It allows you to see the hashtags followed by scientists in each of the disciplines

I’m not sure how useful it will be, but you can quickly discover who’s posting to hashtags that are of interest each of the Life Sciences

Disciplines covered are arranged according to the following:

• Animal Behaviour • Astrobiology • Behaviour Science • Biochemistry • Bioinformatics • Biology • Biomaterial Science • Biomedical Science • Botany • Cell Biology • Developmental Biology • Ecology • Entomology • Genetics • Immunology • Marine Science • Microbiology • Molecular Biology • Mycology • Ornithology • Virology • Zoology
