Exploring the Neandertal legacy of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma risk in Eurasians [PDF]
Biological Research, 2023 Background The genomes of present-day non-Africans are composed of 1–3% of Neandertal-derived DNA as a consequence of admixture events between Neandertals and anatomically modern humans about 50–60 thousand years ago.

Midfacial Morphology and Neandertal–Modern Human Interbreeding [PDF]
Biology, 2022 Ancient DNA from, Neandertal and modern human fossils, and comparative morphological analyses of them, reveal a complex history of interbreeding between these lineages and the introgression of Neandertal genes into modern human genomes.

Unfused transverse foramen of the atlas vertebra in the Neandertal lineage fossils. [PDF]
Anat Rec (Hoboken)Abstract In anatomically modern humans, the atlas can display an unfused transverse foramen (UTF) but currently the presence of UTF in the Neandertal lineage is uncertain due to a scarcity of prevalence studies and no exhaustive record of its presence throughout the entire hominin fossil record.

The intrusive nature of the Châtelperronian in the Iberian Peninsula.
PLoS ONE, 2022 Multiple factors have been proposed to explain the disappearance of Neandertals between ca. 50 and 40 kyr BP. Central to these discussions has been the identification of new techno-cultural complexes that overlap with the period of Neandertal demise in ...
