👉 The Miles Research initiative is a collaborative effort between the University of Bristol and the University of Exeter, focusing on advancing the understanding of long-distance human migration patterns, particularly during prehistoric times. By combining cutting-edge genetic analysis with archaeological and environmental data, researchers aim to trace the movements of ancient populations across continents, shedding light on how humans adapted to and shaped their environments over millennia. Using advanced genomic techniques, Miles Research has identified genetic markers that help map the routes and timelines of migrations, such as those of early farmers moving into Europe or the peopling of the Americas. This interdisciplinary approach not only enhances our knowledge of human history but also provides insights into the biological and cultural exchanges that have shaped modern human diversity.
