Svante Pääbo, father of paleogenetics: ‘The reason for the Neanderthals’ extinction lies in how numerous we’ve become’.

The Nobel Prize winner in Medicine is investigating genetic changes that could have given our species a competitive advantage, and the possibility of extracting the genome of the Flores hobbit.

Die Reste des Neandertalers in manchen von uns.

Der größte genetische Risikofaktor an CoVid schwer zu erkranken oder gar zu sterben kommt vom Neandertaler.

Gleichzeitig senkt das gleiche Gen das Risiko sich mit HIV zu infizieren um 30%.
