Several tens of thousands of years ago, representatives of three branches of humanity lived in Eurasia: Cro-Magnons, Neanderthals, and Denisovans. They met, started families, and there are traces of these close ties in the DNA of modern people. Mikhail Gelfand, Doctor of Biological Sciences, Candidate of Physical and Mathematical Sciences, Deputy Director of the Kharkevich Institute for Information Transmission Problems, Professor, and Head of the Master's Program in Biotechnology at Skoltech, talks about the genetic multi-episode Santa Barbara. The open lecture "Neanderthals, Denisovans, and Cro-Magnons: Genetic Santa Barbara" was held as part of the Kstati science festival in Yekaterinburg, organized by the Atomic Energy Information Center (AEC) in October 2019.
