📞 Ypres calling! Special delivery🚚
Barbara, Martijn, and Charlotte visited the BAAC depot last Friday and collected the first batch of skeletons from the Sint-Maarten parish in Ypres🦴
But who were these medieval city-dwellers, and where did they come from..?🧪

Phytoliths in dicotyledons occurring in North-western Europe: Establishing a baseline
academic.oup.com/aob/article…
So excited to share our accepted manuscript! It sets up a dicot phytolith baseline for NW Europe.
Happy reading soon and feel free to reach out!

The first Belgium strontium isoscape is out now!
@AmandaSengeloev & the team provide the first 604 plant samples from 220 locations, with more data coming soon!
Paper here👇

New BB-LAB paper out 👍🏻 Marta Hlad and the team identified and characterised patterns in cremation analysis practices through an online survey of those working on cremated human remains 👇

Time & Space! At this years Wetenschapfestival Brussel, our @AMGC_VUB team presented themes of both archaeology and cosmo chemistry under one roof, presenting samples, creating art, and giving out free (temporary) tattoos 🦷🦴🔥☄️🌘🪨🚀
Well done to the whole team!

After an amazing PhD journey, I will be defending my thesis on the 15th of November🥳. If you’d like to hear more about the isotope analyses I did on the medieval population of Ypres, you are more than welcome to attend my public defence in Brussels!🦴🦷Message me for more info!

The annual #EAA2024 conference is on next week & the team is getting ready! If you're interested, our talks cover topics from investigating mobility & diet in humans & 🐄 using isotopes, to examining human-environment interactions & cremation practices 🔥 See you in Rome! ✈️

Tuning run# 102. After > 100 sample runs during my PhD I've acquired vast amounts of Sr isotope data
If you want to know how to cope with that much data check out our new paper sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

Congrats @ToothDetective 🎉 Very exciting that you will stay with us @BrusselsBioarch @AMGC_VUB for another three years 🎉😃 #strontiYEAH
Excited & chuffed to be awarded an @FWOVlaanderen Postdoc Fellowship to work on developing stable & radiogenic strontium isotopes + concentrations for diet reconstruction with @Christophe_Fire & @chris_tt_cheung
at @AMGC_VUB 🔥
I'm celebrating by strontium sampling in Croatia 🌿

Working with cremated bones is better than you think 😉 Thanks to the facilities of @AMGC_VUB, @BrusselsBioarch and the funding of @FWOVlaanderen we were able to investigate the burning conditions during the Metal Ages in Belgium! Stay tuned more papers are coming 🔥🌡️💀
