About me
Biologist for the University of Santiago de Compostela, Ricardo's doctoral research with the Atapuerca team centered on the genetic variation and geographic distribution of Iberian and boreal lynx populations throughout history, utilizing ancient DNA analysis of lynx from the Upper Pleistocene to present day. Since joining the University of Stockholm's archaeology department in 2017, he has concentrated his work in archaeogenetics, particularly in examining the genomes of individuals from the past to investigate population migrations and human history in Scandinavia.
