Yusuf Can Özdemir, an assistant research fellow at the Institute of Archaeogenomics and a PhD student at the Doctoral School of Biology at Eötvös Loránd University (ELTE), visited Paris as an invited speaker for the conference “Migrations and Archaeology in Eurasia,” held on October 7-8, 2024.
The Institute of Archaeogenomics was represented with a presentation and a poster at the 23rd "Genetic Workshops in Hungary" miniconference, held on September 6, 2024, in Szeged.
Between August 28-31, 2024, the 31st conference of the European Association of Archaeologists was held in Rome, where thousands of participants presented their research in over 300 sessions. In addition to archaeologists, professionals working in all areas of bioarchaeology presented their work, including several colleagues from the Institute of Archaeogenomics.
A recent study, published in the journal Scientific Reports by the Nature Publishing Group, explores the paternal and maternal genetic composition of Hungarian-speaking populations in the Baranja region of Croatia and the Zobor region of Slovakia. The study, first authored by Noémi Borbély, assistant research fellow at our institute and a PhD student at ELTE, aimed to map regional genetic similarities and differences in these relatively isolated, village-based communities.
Dániel Gerber, a research fellow at our institute, submitted his doctoral thesis in English, titled "Development of Archaeogenetic Methodology Using Experimental Data" as a state scholarship student of the Genetics Doctoral Program at the ELTE TTK Biology Doctoral School.
Our institute's colleagues – Noémi Borbély, Dániel Gerber, Balázs Gyuris, Balázs Mende, and Bea Szeifert – contributed to Válasz Online's recently published bookazine entitled "Válasz Offline".
Bea Szeifert, a research fellow and scientific secretary at our institute, as a state scholarship holder of the Genetics Doctoral Program of the Biology Doctoral School at the Faculty of Science, Eötvös Loránd University (ELTE), submitted her doctoral dissertation titled "Archaeogenetic Analysis of Human Skeletal Material from Volga-Ural Region Cemeteries Associated with Early Hungarians."
On May 4, 2024, the exhibition "Kings, Saints, Monasteries: The World of Early Benedictines in Hungary in Light of the Latest Scientific Research" opened at the Benedictine Abbey of Tihany.
