Anna will also be explaining more about the Neanderthals this autumn in collaboration with the Natural History Museum in London.
She was interviewed for an audio podcast that will form part of a new permanent exhibition called Treasures. It features a selection of the museum’s collections that have changed scientific thinking and explains their importance.
The podcasts will be available from 30 November on the Museum’s website and through iTunes.
