Have you ever wondered how many archaic populations contributed DNA to modern humans? We know about Neanderthals and Denisovans, but the fossil and genetic evidence suggests a much more complex history!

Leipzig U and the MPI for Evolutionary Anthropology (MPI-EVA) have an open faculty position (W2) in evolutionary population genetics! This position is tenured and comes with generous core funding. We are eager to welcome a new colleague! Deadline March 11.

Want to check your ancient DNA study for chromosomal aneuploidies? RChASM is now available for R, to screen for autosomal and sex chromosomal aneuploidies, such as Down syndrome on data from 0.0014X coverage.
We also wrote a step-by-step tutorial with examples:

I participated in this summer school a few years ago and it was really fun. Highly recommend 👇
We are seeking two students: One would develop computational methods for the analysis of ancient DNA from sediments, and apply these tools to novel datasets. The second would generate and analyze aDNA data from archaeological sediments at a number of Holocene sites.
Are you interested in human DNA from ancient sediments? Do you want to do a PhD in Vienna? We have two open positions in our group! You can learn more and apply here (scroll down to the very bottom, ours are the last two listings): careers.univie.ac.at/en/praedoc/s...
Being part of the ARTEMIS program last year was an amazing experience. If you are a scientist in a MPI, check out the new call! www.mpg.de/26122924/art... I am also very happy to see that the Bridging Minds Program will continue :) @maxplanck.de
