Svante Pääbo is a pioneer in the study of the palaeogenetics of human populations and his achievements are very relevant in relation to the palaeogenetics of Neanderthals. In this sense, his genomic studies on the thirteen individuals recovered in the El Sidrón cave (Infiesto, Asturias), the largest accumulation of Neanderthal remains in a site, which have allowed us to know in detail the characteristics of this Asturian population.
