• Resumen

  • The article reports on the results of research on the genomic analysis of Neanderthals which was conducted by several researchers led by Svante Pääbo of the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Leipzig, Germany. The research, which was conducted with DNA taken from Neanderthal bones from Croatia which are more than 38,000 years old, suggests that up to four percent of the DNA of people today who live outside of Africa came from Neanderthals, the result of interbreeding between Neanderthals and early humans.
