#humangenetics — Public Fediverse posts

A "cell village" is a novel experimental platform where neural progenitor cells from dozens of genetically distinct donors are grown together in a single, shared culture. This approach allows scientists to accurately measure each donor's individual cell fitness—specifically how well their cells grow, divide, and survive—under perfectly identical environmental conditions.

I’ll attend the #EuroNDD Workshop in Warsaw in April. Anyone around the Fediverse going there as well? —> let’s connect!

I’m looking forward to present our work at https://www.findme2care.de AND hear about all the other projects.

Also: I’ll be co-hosting an educational session and roundtable discussion titled „Building Patient Registries under the GDPR – The Good, the Bad and the Ugly“ —> there are a few seats left for conference attendees!

"The group likely responsible for the Anatolian branch of the Indo-European languages did not share the same genetic makeup as the Yamnaya. Instead, it descended from a distinct but related population, which they identify as the Caucasus–Lower Volga (CLV) group, preceding the Yamnaya and forming part of the earlier expansion of Indo-Anatolian speakers."

If you like thinking and learning about human prehistory, you'll like this interview with geneticist David Reich. Two hours on what research tells us about human origins, how modern humans relate to Neanderthals and Denisovans, ancient DNA, ancient epidemics, admixture, how genetics informs archaeology, and the spread of the Yamnaya from the steppes.

New publication: "Long genetic and social isolation in Neanderthals before their extinction"

Neanderthal genomes have been recovered from sites across Eurasia, painting an increasingly complex picture of their populations' structure that mostly indicates that late European Neanderthals belonged to a single metapopulation with no significant evidence of population structure. Here, we report the discovery of a late Neanderthal indi... #HumanGenetics https://doi.org/10.1016/j.xgen.2024.100593

The divide between modern humans and our Neanderthal cousins keeps shrinking.

' People with Neanderthal genes didn’t abruptly vanish, Akey says—their offspring just acquired more and more modern human DNA. “They were overwhelmed by waves of modern humans extending out of Africa,” he says. “The modern human population eventually absorbed the Neanderthals.” '

Anyone in the fediverse going to #ESHG2024 tomorrow? Really looking forward! Not gonna lie, I’m a bit „annoyed“ that there’s so many interesting sessions going on at the same time…
Still undecided where to start tomorrow.

If you want to connect or say hi during the breaks, you might find me either at the booth of the „Junge Humangenetik“ or at our booth for #FindMe2care
