We are “Palaeoproteomics and Archaeology, Society for Techniques and Advances”, or PAASTA for short, a community of researchers working on palaeoproteomics, the study of ancient proteins.
The aim of the PAASTA community is to foster an open and supportive environment for all palaeoproteomics researchers to ask questions and share experiences. In particular PAASTA is commited to promote and facilitate collaborative and open science.
Please join us on our:
- Element channel for day-to-day advice, help, brainstorming, news, networking, and socialising. To join, see Element signing up instructions.
- Bluesky for latest news, polls, and publications.
- YouTube for latest videos, lectures, recordings.
- mailing list for announcements, calls, and notices.
To keep get involved and keep up-to-date!
Previously our community used Slack as its primary communication platform, but we have now transitioned to Element. From April 2025 onwards the Slack channel will no longer be updated. You can find instructions on how to sign up for Element here.
If you have any questions or want to reach out for more info about our PAASTA community, the steering committee is here to assist you.
The PAASTA Community is an affiliate of The International Society for Biomolecular Archaeology (ISBA), a Charitable Incorporated Organisation registered in England. ISBA provides infrastructural and financial support of the student-led activities of PAASTA.
