Timeline

1969

Joachim Burger (born 27 June 1969 in Aschaffenburg, West Germany) is a German anthropologist and population geneticist based at Johannes Gutenberg University, Mainz, Germany, where he runs the Palaeogenetics Group at the Institute of Organismic and Molecular Evolution (iOME).

Burger has pioneered the application of ancient DNA technology to resolve anthropological and archaeological questions, particularly concerning humans and domestic animals in the Holocene period.

1997

He received his MA in anthropology in 1997, and his PhD in biology at the Georg-August-University, Göttingen, Germany, in 2000.

2005

He was made professor (junior professor) in molecular archaeology in 2005, and professor in anthropology in 2010.

He is based at Johannes Gutenberg University in Mainz, Germany.

The main focus of Burger's research is human population genetics of Europe in the early Holocene, and of Central Asia during Bronze and Iron Age.

He applies palaepopulation-genetic methods, i.e. uses ancient DNA data from archaeological skeletons and statistical inference methods to compare these "fossil" DNA sequences amongst each other and to modern-day populations.

He pioneered the field of human palaeo-population genetics.

2009

Together with an international team he showed in 2009 that the first European farmers were immigrants to the continent and not descendants of local hunter-gatherers.

2016

In 2016, he published the first ancient genome from the Fertile Crescent.

The study demonstrates that the first Neolithic farmers had populated Europe from the western/central part of Anatolia but not from Iran.

He also works on the population genetics of the Medieval period and of animal domestication.

Burger also is the editor of the journal, Archaeological and Anthropological Sciences and corresponding member of the German Archaeological Institute (DAI).
