Eirini Skourtanioti

I am a population geneticist specialising in ancient human genomics and its integration with historical and bioarchaeological evidence. My research focuses on the population history of Europe and Southwest Asia, exploring how human mobility, admixture and biological kinship practices shaped past societies. At the Genomics Lab of the Crick Institute, I will analyse modern and ancient genomic data from Britain, applying new methods and approaches to gain a better understanding of fine-scale population structure and recent natural selection.
