Journal Club Mar. 21th 2024

Next Journal Club meeting is the 21st of March, at 2pm in the Forhus 7 at the GeoGenetic meeting room.

We will read and discuss this recent paper Mitochondrial genomes of Pleistocene megafauna retrieved from recent sediment layers of two Siberian lakes by Seeber et al. preprint (2nd version). COOL thing you can read the reviewer comments here.
