Hi all,
I am back again on blue sky after some time of dwindling Twitter engagement.
My group studies #microbiomes of wild animals, we have exciting projects in mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians.
We are based at Uppsala University, Sweden. @animecol-uu.bsky.social

We got great results on the bioanalyzer today from the genomic and metagenomic museum samples! ๐งฌ
Thanks to @madeleinebergstrom.bsky.social! Now we're looking forward to send these off for sequencing; they're part of a small pilot project.
