The spatiotemporal distribution of human pathogens in ancient Eurasia - Nature
Screening shotgun-sequencing data from ancient humans covering 37,000โyears of Eurasian history uncovers the widespread presence of ancient bacterial, viral and parasite DNA and zoonotic pathogens coi...
A big study of ancient human DNA confirms what researchers had previously suspected but were unable to fully confirm. Humans were affected by a large number of new diseases when our ancestors began domesticating animals.
