Ancient genomics: clues about the earliest migrations out of Africa
Analyses of 45,000-year-old bones from Europe allow scientists to pin down when modern humans interbred with Neanderthals, shedding light on the histories of populations with no present-day descendants.
Guaitacargols: l’estudi de la biodiversitat de cargols terrestres a secundària
Guaitacargols és un projecte adreçat a centres d’educació secundària que proposa fer un estudi de la biodiversitat de cargols terrestres en espais propers als centres. La iniciativa és impulsada pel Museu de Ciències ...
Whole genomes from the extinct Xerces Blue butterfly can help identify declining insect species
The Xerces Blue (Glaucopsyche xerces) is considered to be the first butterfly to become extinct in historical times. It was notable for its chalky lavender wings with conspicuous white spots on the ventral wings. The last ...
The Catalan initiative for the Earth BioGenome Project: contributing local data to global biodiversity genomics
The Catalan Initiative for the Earth BioGenome Project (CBP) is an EBP-affiliated project network aimed at sequencing the genome of the > 40000 eukaryotic species estimated to live in the Catalan-speaking territories ...
Population genomics of post-glacial western Eurasia
Western Eurasia witnessed several large-scale human migrations during the Holocene. Here, to investigate the cross-continental effects of these migrations, we shotgun-sequenced 317 genomes—mainly from the Mesolithic and ...
A genetic history of the Balkans from Roman frontier to Slavic migrations
The rise and fall of the Roman Empire was a socio-political process with enormous ramifications for human history. The Middle Danube was a crucial frontier and a crossroads for population and cultural movement. Here, we ...

L’article presenta el pla d’acció per a la perspectiva de gènere del Museu de Ciències Naturals de Barcelona 2021-2023, fruit d’un procés llarg i sense referents que ha implicat una part important del personal del museu. Les ...
A new assemblage of late Neanderthal remains from Cova Simanya (NE Iberia)
This study presents an exceptional collection of 54 Late Pleistocene human remains that correspond to at least three Neanderthal individuals from Simanya Gran, the main gallery of Cova Simanya, located in the northeastern ...
Del Niu Volant a les escoles bressol de ciència
El Niu Volant viatja del Museu de Ciències Naturals a les escoles bressol per apropar-hi propostes didàctiques d’aprenentatge de les ciències naturals. Després de l’experiència amb el Niu Volant, dues escoles han transferit ...
A 23,000-year-old southern Iberian individual links human groups that lived in Western Europe before and after the Last Glacial Maximum
Human populations underwent range contractions during the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) which had lasting and dramatic effects on their genetic variation. The genetic ancestry of individuals associated with the post-LGM Magdalenian ...
Across the North Sea and beyond
Increasing numbers of ancient genomes from the Viking period retrieved across the North Sea regions are revealing a complex layer of genetic ancestries and a past cosmopolitanism that was triggered by different mobility patterns.
Human genetics: a tale of two historical Jewish communities
The first studies to retrieve genome-wide data from two Medieval European Jewish communities from England and Germany illustrate the complex interplay of ancestry, disease, religion, culture and ethics.
Museomics
Museo-what? Museomics! Museomics is emerging as a distinct discipline from ancient DNA research and involves natural history museums and herbaria across the world. Museomics can be defined as the application of -omics ...
The population genomic legacy of the second plague pandemic
Human populations have been shaped by catastrophes that may have left long-lasting signatures in their genomes. One notable example is the second plague pandemic that entered Europe in ca. 1,347 CE and repeatedly returned ...
El Niu Volant = El Nido Volante = The Flying Nest
El Museu de Ciències Naturals de Barcelona (MCNB) té com a objectiu generar i compartir coneixement amb la voluntat de crear una societat més informada, connectada i responsable amb la natura. Aquest objectiu s’assoleix ...
Enhancing the educational value of palaeontological heritage: the Didactic Collection of the Museu de Ciències Naturals de Barcelona (Catalonia, Spain) and its strategic framework
The biased perception society has towards palaeontology, shown through practical activity experience, has led a multidisciplinary team of educators and scientists to meticulously design a didactic programme to increase, ...
Una museografía para la didáctica: la exposición "Planeta Vida"
"Planeta Vida", la exposición de referencia del Museo de Ciencias Naturales de Barcelona, ofrece un discurso actual con una visión transversal de las ciencias naturales y una clara voluntad de evolución y constante ...
