@biointeractive.bsky.social ambassadors are from the US, Canada, Mexico and Puerto Rico, and are doing the important work of developing, workshopping and studying teaching materials that will shape the minds of the youth.

Happy to have worked on this project with @mashaals.bsky.social , Emilia Huerta-Sanchez and Valeria Aรฑorve-Garibay. We analyzed how stabilizing and directional selection cause problems to predict traits in ancient samples.
