Join us for Ancient DNA: New Revelations, a free CARTA public symposium! Dramatic advances in ancient DNA technologies have revolutionized our understanding of the human past. Since the publication of the first ancient human genomes in 2010, the field of archaeogenomics has grown at an astonishing pace, and today the genomes of more than 10,000 ancient humans have been sequenced. From discovering surprising new members of the human lineage to revealing the unexpected histories of infectious diseases to tracking the great migrations that laid the foundations of present-day societies, ancient DNA is rewriting the human story. This symposium explores the diverse applications of archaeogenomics in shaping not only a new vision of the human past, but also in creating a greater understanding of the present and our shared human future. This symposium is an update to our April 2016 event, Ancient DNA and Human Evolution. Event Details Date: Friday, November 7, 2025 Time: 1 p.m. – 5:30 p.m. (Pacific) Location: Salk Institute & Live Webcast More Information & Registration: https://carta.anthropogeny.org/ This is a public symposium presented by the Center for Academic Research and Training in Anthropogeny.
