This lecture will look at one of the greatest revolutions in the field of genomics: the ability to sequence DNA from fossils, a discipline known as paleogenomics. We'll see how these studies have enabled us to better understand the relationships between our Homo sapiens ancestors and other human forms, such as Neanderthals.
