Metagenomic analysis of Egyptian Mummies.
Published:
I gave a talk about the first results of the metagenomic analysis of Egyptian mummies dated to the First Intermediate period to the Roman period at the WCOMS.
A 2,200 year old Mycobacterium leprae genome from an Egyptian mummy
Published:
I gave a talk about the first results of the metagenomic and pathogen analysis of Egyptian mummies dated to the First Intermediate period to the Roman period and presented the so far oldest Mycobacterium leprae genome at the SMBE conference.
MitoBench & MitoDB – novel interactive methods for population genetics of human mitochondrial DNA
Published:
This talk was about mitoBench and mitoDB, a workbench for the analysis of mitochondrial DNA. The connection with mitoDB aims at the easier comparison and a central public repository of mtDNA. The presentation was given at the 8th International Symposium for Biomolecular Archaeology (ISBA 2018).
