This project focuses on understanding human evolution by analyzing the genomes of Neandertals and Denisovans. It aims to automate ancient DNA extraction to study the genetic contributions of these extinct relatives to modern humans.
Neandertals and Denisovans, an Asian group distantly related to Neandertals, are the closest evolutionary relatives of present-day humans.
They are thus of direct relevance for understanding the origin of modern humans and how modern humans differ from their closest relatives.
We will generate genome-wide data from a large number of Neandertal and Denisovan individuals from across their geographical and temporal range as well as from other extinct hominin groups which we may discover.
