My father-in-law got Covid back in the beginning of September he was on a ventilator for almost 2 months. He lost all muscle ...

Beyond flint-knapping and tossing spears with atlatls, Kent State University’s Metin Eren has a vision for his field’s future ...

When most people think of Neanderthals, they picture a classic caveman caricature — brutish and backward, a relic of the distant past. But this image doesn’t tell the whole story. These Ice Age ...

Previous reconstructions of Neanderthal ribcages, such as Kebara 2 from Kebara Cave in Israel, have also relied on relatively intact remains. In the study, titled "Shanidar 3 'rings the bell ...

Cancel anytime. The interesting piece on potential sequencing of the Neanderthal genome and subsequent recreation of a specimen poses complex and worrisome ethical questions. ("Should AI be used ...

One relevant example is research on Neanderthals, our closest relatives, who lived until about 40,000 years ago. Neanderthals have been studied for several years now through genetic investigation ...

That interbreeding left Eurasians with many genes inherited from our Neanderthal ancestors, which in total make up between 1% and 2% of our genomes today. The genome-based estimate is consistent ...

A new analysis of DNA from ancient modern humans (Homo sapiens) in Europe and Asia has determined, more precisely than ever, the time period during which Neanderthals interbred with modern humans ...

A few thousand miles north of where our species took shape, another archaic human group called Eurasia home: Neanderthals. From England to Central Asia, Neanderthals developed their own culture to ...

Hidden in many people’s genetic codes is a mystery that has long intrigued scientists — a tiny slice of Neanderthal DNA that persists tens of thousands of years after the species vanished.
