- ResearchDiscovery of world's oldest DNA breaks million-year recordA new chapter in evolutionary history starts with the recent discovery of two-million-year-old DNA: Microscopic fragments of environmental DNA have been discovered in sediments from northern Greenland. Using state-of-the-art technology, the international research team, including scientists from Grenoble's Laboratoire d'écologie alpine (LECA - UGA / USMB / CNRS) and the Institut des Sciences de la Terre (ISTerre - UGA / USMB / CNRS / IRD / Université Gustave Eiffel), discovered that these fragments are one million years older than the previous record of DNA collected from a Siberian mammoth bone. These research results were published in the prestigious scientific journal Nature on 7 December, 2022.Find out more
