«Determining the specific impact of intrinsic colloid formation by radioactive elements can aid in the development of migration models predicting radionuclide transport on a field - scale,» says Prof. Weisbrod. (sciencedaily.com)
Other researchers say that this new genome is important because «it is the first paper to document some degree of continuity among the first people to get to Europe and the people living there today,» says population geneticist David Reich of Harvard University, one of the authors on the triple migration model.

In challenging the multiple migration model, the new genome data, published online today in Science, suggest that Europeans today are the descendants of a very old, interconnected population of hunter - gatherers that had already spread throughout Europe and much of central and western Asia by 36,000 years ago.
