  1. 💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: 🧬🦗 A genomic study from the Institute of Evolutionary #Biology analyzed 745 ancient dental calculus samples and chitinase genes across #Eurasia.

    Northern populations rarely ate #insects and carry mutations reducing their ability to digest insect exoskeletons, a trait persisting since the dawn of #agriculture. #Neanderthals and #tropical populations show more insect #DNA and better adapted #genes.

  14. 💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: 🧬🤔 An archaeologist unpacks the #science and #ethics of #cloning extinct #humans like #Neanderthals.

    The piece explains why Colossal Biosciences’ widely reported #direwolf de-extinction was actually a genetically tweaked gray #wolf, not a true clone. It walks through how real cloning works, why intact ancient #DNA simply doesn’t exist for Neanderthals, and whether we should even try.

    A cave on the Turkish Mediterranean coast was inhabited first by Neanderthals and then Homo sapiens, but the continuity of tools and personal objects suggests there was some sharing of culture between the two species.
