Objective
PaleoMIX proposes an interdisciplinary research programme to better understand cultural heritage as one of the main definers of European identity and grant its maximum informative value and long-term preservation. PaleoMIX bridges humanities and natural sciences by bringing together experts from the Eastern Baltic and Western Europe to implement top-notch bioarchaeological and computational research methodologies for conducting a more sustainable study of tangible heritage. The Twinning exercise consolidates the research and innovation capabilities of the internationally acknowledged research centres – BioArCh (University of York, UK) and GLOBE Institute: Evo and Eco Genomics Sections (University of Copenhagen, DK) and Laboratory of Human Evolution, isoTOPIK Lab (University of Burgos, ES) – to the Coordinator, University of Tartu (EE), allowing the establishment of a dedicated Research-Innovation (R&I) Hub on Tangible Heritage Studies. The transdisciplinary research excellence that becomes available through tight cooperation, mobilities and creation of digital infrastructure (PaleoMIX O.A.D.) in the E Baltics is first demonstrated in the Research Pilot about the most important cultural change in human history – Neolithization. With the push from the Twinning partners, the R&I Hub will become a self-sustainable naval point and a pool of knowledge to disseminate the best practices in heritage studies to regional researchers and other stakeholders.On a wider scale, PaleoMIX promotes the integration of humanities and natural sciences to tackle prominent questions about European common heritage. PaleoMIX further i) contributes to the sustainability of the knowledge-based society with its extensive knowledge production and dissemination among the general public, ii) strengthens the links between academia, business and other governmental organisations through novel services offered by the R&I Hub, and iii) acts as a springboard for the next generation researchers in heritage studies.
