Unleash the power of ancient human DNA to unlock the secrets of our shared ancestry! A recent article published in the scientific journal Nature presents groundbreaking research on a non-destructive method for extracting DNA from ancient bones and teeth artefacts, offering new possibilities for understanding human evolution and ancestry.

Join us at the CIC Journal Club as we explore this exciting development in life sciences and discover how it could revolutionize our understanding of human history. We’ll discuss the implications of this new technology and its potential to shed light on the roles of individuals of a particular biological sex or genetic ancestry in ancient societies, offering a fascinating glimpse into our shared human ancestry and the mysteries of our ancient past. This session is open to everyone, whether you’re a scientist or simply curious about the latest discoveries in life sciences.
