Ti izračuni predstavljaju prekretnicu u naporima dekodiranja potpunog genoma neandertalaca, izumrlih hominida čije je postojanje otkriveno prije 150 godina uz pomoć fosila nađenog u jednom njemačkom kamenolomu.
The calculations are a milestone in efforts to decode the complete genome of Neanderthals, the extinct hominids whose existence was discovered 150 years ago with a fossil find in a German quarry.
