古基因组学与人类起源演化的研究进展——2022年诺贝尔生理学或医学奖解读

Advances in paleogenomics and human origin and evolution:Interpretation of the 2022 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine

2022年诺贝尔生理学或医学奖的获奖者是著名生物学家、进化遗传学家斯万特·帕博(Svante Paabo)。他通过研究已灭绝古人类的基因组,对探索人类演化作出了巨大贡献。文章介绍帕博及其团队关于尼安德特人和丹尼索瓦人的研究和发现,以及古DNA领域近30年的发展和最新成果。

The winner of the 2022 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine is Svante Pääbo,a renowned biologist and evolutionary geneticist.He has made great contributions to the study of human evolution by studying the genomes of extinct hominids.This article introduces Pääbo and his team’s discoveries on Neanderthals and Denisovans,as well as the 30-year advances in ancient DNA.
