  • Svante Pääbo, Director at the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Leipzig, Germany, is regarded as the founder of paleogenetics. Together with his team of the Neandertal Genome Project Svante has sequenced the complete genome of a Neandertal for for the first time. It revealed that that Neandertals and modern human had mixed with each other. As a result, Neandertal genes had been passed on to people living outside whose genetic roots are outside Africa.

    According to 23 and Me I have more Neanderthal genes the 88% of 23 and Me customers. I am 99.9% European, but my question is regarding Neanderthal genes to possibly explain my excessively long tooth roots. I needed to have my teeth removed due to age and breaking and my Prosthedonist had never seen roots as long as mine. They were more than twice a long as normal human tooth roots. Makes me wonder if I am some hybrid species.

    Here are some critical remarks.
    1. Unless the neanderthal code is (almost) complete it is (almost) useless for comparison purposes.
    2. This video tells nothing about the results. So we must argue there aren't any.
    3. Looking at the neanderthal skull looks more like hollywood movie a la Indiana Jones than serious report.
    4. Svante understands nothing from this DNA code he is looking at. So again, this is at the moment useless work. It could be done 20 years later when the code is understandable.
    5. All this work looks like "I have the money so I can do whatever I want" approach. Lets hope Germany has enough gas this winter. If not, look for neanderthal fells as well.

      Data collecting, the process continues with analysis. Hardly useless. Of course it takes time as paleogeneticists must be trained up globally and analystics techniques developed. There may be dead ends encountered but they too are useful in their own way, such is the way of exploration and research. Pääbo's speciality will become the standard in another generation, with paleoanthropologists and their fairy stories pushed aside. Paleogenetics frees us all - scientist and lay(wo)man alike. Currently we're all gagged like Galileo was in his time. Max-Planck Institute is based in Muenchen - they have geo-heating + Germany overall has ample gas stored up.

      @@celtspeaksgoth7251 Can you count how many years those neanderthal bones are hiding underground? 40 000 years!
      On the other hand having something like neanderthal "fells" already this winter would be extremely useful.
      Never heard of the news any Max Planck institute invented nuclear fusion reactor which is exactly the type of "fells" they would need this winter. 😀
