Reconstructing the human past: using ancient and modern genomics
When
Tuesday, 15 September 2026 – Friday, 18 September 2026
Full day
“Interested” saves it to your list and sharpens your recommendations. “Going” marks your spot and opens the organizer’s page so you can grab the actual ticket.
Combining genome-wide data from ancient and modern populations opens new windows into the past and, importantly, their integration with archaeological evidence and historical records elucidates aspects of human history and cultural evolution of past societies. Population-scale sequencing projects investigating past and present human diversity have already provided us with extraordinary insights into patterns of human variation and mobility through time and space. Moreover, genome-wide data from archaic human remains, such as Neanderthals and Denisovans, allows to investigate human evolution in action and to provide direct insights into genetic changes that define our own lineage.
