    ​The entire genome from Peştera Muierii 1 sequenced

    Researchers have successfully sequenced the entire genome from the skull of Peştera Muierii 1, a woman who lived 35,000 years ago. Her high genetic diversity shows that the out-of-Africa migration was not the great bottleneck in human development but rather this occurred during and after the most recent Ice Age. This new study, led by Professor Mattias Jakobsson, is published in Current Biology.
