Cracking Beethoven’s code of life through his hair
Ludwig van Beethoven: musically a genius, socially a curmudgeon. When the composer wrote his famous Ninth Symphony, he was already deaf. He was plagued by many illnesses.
As a result, he requested a post-mortem autopsy to research his illnesses.
In 2014, an international team of researchers began sequencing Beethoven’s genome to gain more clues about his condition. When his new findings through DNA analysis of Beethoven’s hair were recently published, the media eagerly jumped on the story, offering more insight into the life of the famous classical composer.
