The paper develops a computational method to analyze low-quality archaic human genomes and applies it to the Teshik-Tash 1 Neandertal, showing genetic similarity to later Western Eurasian Neandertals.

This paper presents a second high-quality Denisovan genome from a 200,000-year-old molar, revealing genetic contributions from multiple Denisovan groups and refining the Denisovan genetic lineage.

The paper analyzes Neandertal ancestry in over 300 genomes to determine the timing and impact of gene flow from Neandertals to modern humans.

The paper expands the stdpopsim species catalog and improves genome simulations by adding non-crossover recombination and species-specific annotations, making simulations more realistic for non-model organisms.
