- 4 days ago

After six years, 7.000 genetically analysed samples, archaeological and anthropological studies of over 100 cemeteries, and numerous publications, the ERC Synergy Grant 856453 HistoGenes will be concluded in 2026. In our final conference, we would like to share our results and discuss their implications with colleagues. We will also focus on comparative topics such as migration, chronology, demography, and discuss disciplinary and interdisciplinary advances that the HistoGenes Approach has brought about.
A public lecture in German will be held on Wednesday evening, 25 February at the NHM by our PIs Patrick Geary (history) and Tivadar Vida (archaeology) and group leader Margit Berner (anthropology).
Two keynote lectures by our PIs Johannes Krause (genetics) and Walter Pohl (history) will conclude the three-days programme.
