Neanderthal genes linked to hand disorder, computer sorting advances, longevity breakthrough
Originally Published 2 years ago — by Science X
A team of geneticists found evidence that the "Viking disease" hand disorder may have come from Neanderthal genes. Google DeepMind achieved a giant leap forward in sorting speed, and Google Research developed StyleDrop, an AI-based application that renders images based on user descriptions of objects. Archaeologists in Peru examined a mummy surrounded by coca leaves, and a team in Bavaria found a Bronze Age sword. Health scientists found that people who preserve their "immune resilience" tend to live longer and resist infections compared to everyone else.
