    Didn't Neanderthals have a smaller adrenal gland than humans? Not sure her wildness will be up to your usual standards. parrot

    Well, they were stronger and more 'built' so I guess it evens out.

    he/she would not be resistant to many diseases

    Couldn't this be taken into account and have the Neanderthal inoculated? We do it to ourselves to protect us from something that will kill us if exposed to more than the controlled injection.

    Yes, but there would a lot of diseases in the past 40,000 years that the Neanderthal have never faced.

    Its very interesting. No evidence suggests Neanderthal mtDNA (mitochondrial DNA) was passed (which is only passed maternally). This means either that H. sapiens male-female Neanderthal did not produce a fertile offspring or the hybrids became extinct alongside the rest of the Neanderthals. My own hypothesis is that we H. sapiens males did not find them very attractive  Tongue (though male Neanderthals banged a lot of H. sapiens women - it must have been their strong, muscular bodies that attracted the women Cheesy).

    If inoculation isn't an option would it not be possible to modify the immune system?

    That's assuming you're saying inoculation wouldn't work.

    We could for many diseases that we have vaccines for like anthrax. But there so many bacteria that can be pathogenic and potentially harmful for the Neanderthal.

    But with the DNA and the immune system itself being so similar, would you not agree we can plan for this and make adjustments, even tweaking with their genetic structure?

    And just putting this out there, if the poor fucker spends his/her entire life in a lab, unable to experience any fullness of life, living in a bubble, I would have a number of ethical concerns on bringing one into the modern world.

    We should be tweaking with our DNA to remove our dangerous evolutionary baggage before we go about reviving other life, if that is even possible.

    It's possible to turn genes off, so yes.
