Paleogenòmica
L’estudi de l’estructura, la funció i l’organització dels genomes antics són els objectes d’estudi del grup de recerca en Paleogenòmica, i més concretament totes les qüestions evolutives a què pot donar resposta l’anàlisi de l’ADN antic (com són les relacionades amb l’evolució dels humans, la dinàmica i la diversitat de la població, els processos adaptatius i les migracions passades). El grup de recerca treballa amb humans moderns antics i amb una espècie d’homínids ja extingida, els neandertals. En relació amb els últims, la recerca duta a terme fins al moment s’ha centrat en la diversitat genòmica entre els neandertals i en la individualització d’un grup de la família dels neandertals d’El Sidrón, una excavació arqueològica d’Astúries. El grup de recerca en Paleogenòmica també investiga les dinàmiques evolutives i les migracions passades en la prehistòria europea per mitjà de l’anàlisi de genomes humans del Mesolític, Neolític, Edat del Coure i Edat del Bronze.
