Zeberg has conducted research studies on how gene variants inherited from Neanderthals influence occurrence of severe complications from Covid-19. He has also worked with Svante Pääbo for years and published a collaborative study in the journal Nature in 2020, providing evidence suggesting a role for genetics in the severity of COVID-19. He ...
In 2020, research by Zeberg and Paabo found that a major genetic risk factor for severe COVID-19 is inherited from Neanderthals. “We compared it to the Neanderthal genome and it was a perfect ...
A specific form of a protein passed down from Neanderthals protects against severe COVID-19, according to a new study. UK variant linked to high viral loads, Neanderthal gene offers protection ...
The remnants of Neanderthal DNA are more common in people from Europe and Asia. They could confer an advantage during a coronavirus infection.
Neanderthal genomes sequenced include those from Denisova Cave [8] [9] [10] including an offspring of a Neanderthal and a Denisovan, [11] from Chagyrskaya Cave, [12] from Vindija Cave, [13] [9] [14] Mezmaiskaya cave, Les Cottés cave, Goyet Caves and Spy Cave, [14] Hohlenstein-Stadel and Scladina caves [15] Galería de las Estatuas [16] and ...
His 2014 book A Troublesome Inheritance: Genes, Race and Human History was widely denounced by the scientific community for misrepresenting research into human population genetics. [ 5 ] [ 6 ] [ 7 ] In May 2021, Wade published an article in support of the COVID-19 lab leak hypothesis , [ 8 ] contrary to the prevailing scientific view, [ 9 ...
Archaeological and genetic evidence suggests both modern humans and Neanderthals lived side-by-side in Eurasia for between 6,000 and 7,000 years.
