Svante Paabo Biography

In the late spring of 2006, Leipzig, Germany's Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology, was bustling, but not because it was one of the World Cup soccer tournament's host cities. Instead, the organization announced the start of one of the most intense research projects recently on July 20, 2006: sequencing the whole genome of a Neanderthal. These ancient primates, who handed down the Earth to modern humans before becoming extinct 30.000 years ago, communicate with the closest living cousin of humanity. It is now possible to comprehend the origins of people and what makes us distinct if their genomes can be read and combined with the recently completed genome of chimpanzees, the closest living relative of humans.
