Archaic humans such as Neanderthals and Denisovans are extinct but their DNA lives on in many humans today because our ancestors met and had children with them.
We have long known that early humans and Neanderthals interbred, but where did it happen and over what kind of time period? My latest for @newscientist.com reports on a new paper that finds it may have happened over a massive area 🧪

In a new paper led by Jiaqi Yang we trace the distribution of Denisovan introgressed DNA in ancient modern human genomes over time.

We are getting a clearer sense of where and how often Homo sapiens and Neanderthals interbred, and it turns out the behaviour was much more common than we first thought

Gene flow from Neandertals has shaped the genetic and phenotypic variation in modern humans. We generate a catalog of Neandertal ancestry segments in more than 300 genomes spanning the last 50,000 yea...
