Initial Upper Palaeolithic humans in Europe had recent Neanderthal ancestry
Nature, 2021 Modern humans appeared in Europe by at least 45,000 years ago1–5, but the extent of their interactions with Neanderthals, who disappeared by about 40,000 years ago6, and their relationship to the broader expansion of modern humans outside Africa are ...

Local adaptation and archaic introgression shape global diversity at human structural variant loci
eLife, 2021 Large genomic insertions and deletions are a potent source of functional variation, but are challenging to resolve with short-read sequencing, limiting knowledge of the role of such structural variants (SVs) in human evolution.

Signals interpreted as archaic introgression appear to be driven primarily by faster evolution in Africa [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2020 Non-African humans appear to carry a few per cent archaic DNA due to ancient inter-breeding. This modest legacy and its likely recent timing imply that most introgressed fragments will be rare and hence will occur mainly in the heterozygous state.

The influence of Neanderthal alleles on cytotoxic response [PDF]
PeerJ, 2018 Various studies have shown that people of Eurasian origin contain traces of DNA inherited from interbreeding with Neanderthals. Recent studies have demonstrated that these Neanderthal variants influence a range of clinically important traits and diseases.

The Strength of Selection against Neanderthal Introgression. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2016 Hybridization between humans and Neanderthals has resulted in a low level of Neanderthal ancestry scattered across the genomes of many modern-day humans.

Middle Paleolithic Site Sukhaya Mechёtka: the Renewal of Complex Investigations
Нижневолжский археологический вестник, 2020 The Sukhaya Mechёtka site, located on the northern outskirts of Volgograd, has attracted the attention of Paleolithic researchers since its discovery in 1951 by geologists A.I.Koptev and M.N. Grishchenko. The materials of the site - a collection of stone

Current Biology, 2011 Our closest hominid relatives may have died out 30,000 years before the arrival of the computer, but thanks to modern genomics and scanning technology, they are now very present in the 21st century and can even help us understand our own species.
