Neanderthal Man with Svante Pääbo - Conversations with History
Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 жов 2014
- (Visit: www.uctv.tv/) Conversations host Harry Kreisler welcomes Svante Pääbo, Director of the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Leipzig, Germany, for a discussion of his intellectual journey. Svante Pääbo highlights both the opportunities and obstacles that characterized his 30 year quest to uncover the genome of Neanderthal Man. In the course of his reflections, he elucidates the nature of scientific inquiry and highlights the possible long-term implications of using genetic research to understand the genome of human ancestors and thereby understand the uniqueness of humans. Svante Pääbo was the 2014 Foerster Lecturer at Berkeley.

Well done Svante! Here’s a Nobel for you today!🎉😊
Thanks UCTV for uploading a fascinating conversation with one of the most interesting scientists of our time.
He should receive a Nobel Price! What a brilliant mind!
why didn't he?
Tick in the box! 😄
@@Lee90000 He did this year.
@@vonSchneiderXXL 🥳 They finally listened to me! 😝
I should have watched this 9 years ago
Actual discussion of Neanderthal genome begins at 35:00.
@ShadeyBladey ikea, volvo, and abba.
he says YES in unique way 👍👍👍
awesome video, thank you.
Great scientist, great human being.
wonderful interview
Wow, Svante is such a class act. Amazingly brilliant, too, of course. The interviewer seems to be so affected (intellectual snobbery), which seems almost humorous given that he is interviewing THE Svante Paabo ! I would think that would humble anyone. ;)
The interviewer, uhhhh, mmm, uhhhh, is a, uhhhuuuhhh, snob.
@@Lee90000 Maybe I'm just less aware, but I thought the interviewer's bodily position and how he held his head, may have given that impression. That could have come from how each man was seated or even some physical (age?) discomfort. Certainly I didn't get that from his questioning as he seemed very respectful.
I thought the interview was more playful than snobby ε:
An amazing visionary. He has given us the ability to “see” what actually happens with people and populations through history.
We can wait for the first frozen caveman species coming out of the melting Permafrost. Surprises me this has not yet happened.
This was amazing i really enjoyed watching this
He could make anything fascinating.
He could say: sky, blue. table, brown. and it would be interesting.
You are in love.
Wondefrul discussion.
wonderful and surprising,we all carry a little bit of them in us!!so they were not a completely isolated race but they are us or we are them....I mean they are on!!amazing!!
for someone will a strong accent Svante's fluency in english is incredible
I think it's because English is the language of science.
Likely conversations with his American primatologist wife hasn't hurt.
Scott - i didn't know that - i shoulda looked it up
Svante speaks German fluently too.
Why would anyone not think humans and neanderthal mated? Have you ever met anyone who grew up on farm? Some males will stick it anything. Doesn't mean there would be viable offspring, but come on people.
....and some women don't mind being 'stuck' with a range of odd things.
Neanderthal DNA included mtDNA from at least 3 female Neanderthals. Mating was more likely to be modern males with female Neanderthals. I think this also proves Neanderthals were the same species as us. Maybe referring to them as a “race” is more accurate.
I agree!
Yes, Ligers and tigons have mated, as have horses and zebras
Ah yes, let's just redefine species for the sake of 'humanoids" so we can all just get along.... If a group of Denosovans was found surviving in remote Tasmania the policies, opinions, classifications and such would surely be adjusted for the sake of achieving a sufficient socio-politically correct posture.
If you are interested in the origins of H. Sapiens (and all other members of the genus), you may enjoy watching a new theory’s short introductory video presentation @sxjs (8 min.) proposing as the birthplace/natural environment of our species a permanent warm coastal fog most likely existing for 2.6 million years at the periphery of the Irish Sea Glacier (during late Pleistocene). Is proposed in parallel that the Human higher cognition is, in fact, the outcome of a few types of transgenerational traumas/inflammations. Also, as the source of all the unique skeletomuscular features of modern Humans presented in this UCTV video is proposed a severe transgenerational photo-trauma suffered by an earlier depigmented form of our species as the individuals were adapting to their new sunny environments (the rest of the planet). The lack of pigmentation readily inferred as the result of living away from light for 2.6 my inside the said permanent warm coastal fog.
Why watch? I am looking to be educated on Neanderthals. The video appears to be an episide of (This is your life). 10 mins in. Nothing of interest. I search elsewhere.
Is he going to answer the Q Chicken or the Egg was first... No, but he is going to answer the Q about Neanderthals whether they were wiped out by the same thing whether it was climate, Homo Sapiens, Disease, etc., like all the mammals that lived at the same period in time, Pleistocene Megafauna...Did they all die the same way and how????????????
Neanderthals evolved into wrestlers and modern day cops ..................
Denisovans becoming Antifa, Pelosians, Schumerites....

kriesler doesn't know how to spark svantes genius.
Paublus Americanus kreissler is a very competent and engaged academic interviewer of long standing.
While this is very interesting, it looks to me like there is definitely a dark side to this that no one wants to bring up. Since all the evidence points to all Neanderthal genetic contribution to be from males, and there is no evidence of any female Neanderthal genetic contribution, I suspect this is the result of Neanderthal rape of modern humans. Hunter gatherers tend to form tribes and these tribes wage war on those not in the tribe. It seems unlikely that Neanderthals and modern humans would just get along and intermix socially. They are only competition for resources and males of both species would consider the other to be genetic competition. I'm not seeing a reason for the two to just get along. So the middle eastern Neanderthals were bigger and stronger, knew how to survive in that environment, and were able to give the newcomer modern humans a hard time. If they fought like Native American tribes tended to fight, then they would have conducted raids against the modern humans whenever they encountered them. Sometimes they would be planned out ahead of time if they had the opportunity, but many would be impromptu. Purpose would be to steal the their stuff and rape their women, just like Native American's did to each other, and to European settlers and Mexicans. The purpose wasn't to wipe them out, though they would certainly kill any modern human male who opposed them. Thus, there were still many survivors of these raids, to include the newly impregnated women. I don't think the modern humans were above raping those outside their tribe, but it would be quite difficult for them to rape a Neanderthal woman who was probably stronger than any modern human male.
Rape in warfare isn't a thing of the past, and it isn't restricted to hunter gatherer tribes either. Recent history shows that if the military leaders turn a blind eye to it, or in some cases, even encourage it, then it can become rampant. As examples: 1. Russia raped many German women and girls as they advanced on Berlin. 2. Japan's "Rape of Nanking" and other parts of China. 3. ISIS allowing the rape and sexual enslavement of non-Muslim women and girls and any other in any area they occupied. So we have every reason to believe that Neanderthals would rape modern human women.
But then again Neanderthal women might simply have been able to achieve pregnancy with modern human semen due to 'structural' or other biological, metabolic incompatibilities. Worthy of consideration!
@@scottjosen2606 I don't understand. Can you rephrase?
