We have spent the last week on fieldwork, sampling #reindeer calves. ๐ŸฆŒ

We've been in the mountains in Jรคmtland, at the Tรฅssรฅsen Sรกmi reindeer herding community. Fantastic experience being part of the calf marking event. #microbiome

Thanks to the @qvarnstromlab.bsky.social and @elinvidevall.bsky.social I had the great experience of participating in the fieldwork on ร–land where we collected data from pied and collared flycatchers for the flycatcher project at Uppsala university! ๐Ÿฆ๐Ÿฃ

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! ๐Ÿงฌ

Thanks to @madeleinebergstrom.bsky.social! Now we're looking forward to send these off for sequencing; they're part of a small pilot project.
