If you haven't already, it's a good idea to pin posts on your profile.

Pinned posts let you explain a bit more about yourself, including attaching images, video or audio. You can pin up to five posts on a single account.

Pinned posts also have the advantage that they're "backfilled". This means that everyone who browses your profile will see them, even if their server hasn't noticed your account before.

In the largest study of its kind, researchers used DNA from a 6,700-year-old cemetery to reconstruct the lives of Neolithic people.

As @BRohrlach (@UniofAdelaide) + Maïté Rivollat write, these people brought the bones of a “founding father” with them. t.co/rNlnqtEfFs

Researchers at the UC Santa Cruz Paleogenomics Lab helped conduct the first investigation of genomic diversity among people buried at Machu Picchu, the renowned 15th century Inca palace in southern Peru.

What they found suggests that the servants who lived, worked, and died at Machu Picchu were a diverse community representing many different ancestral backgrounds throughout the Inca Empire challenging historical narratives about how the empire grew.
