BACKGROUND The interdisciplinary field of animal coloration is growing rapidly, spanning
questions about the diverse ways that animals use pigments and structures to generate …

Psychology has traditionally seen itself as the science of universal human cognition, but it
has only recently begun seriously grappling with cross-cultural variation. Here we argue that …

INTRODUCTION Variation in pigmentation among human populations may reflect local
adaptation to regional light environments, because dark skin is more photoprotective …

Scandinavia was one of the last geographic areas in Europe to become habitable for
humans after the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM). However, the routes and genetic …

The first decade of ancient genomics has revolutionized the study of human prehistory and
evolution. We review new insights based on prehistoric modern human genomes, including …

Gloger's rule is an ecogeographical rule that links animal colouration with climatic variation.
This rule is named after CWL Gloger who was one of the first to summarise the associations …

Pigment production is a unique character of melanocytes. Numerous factors are linked with
melanin production, including genetics, ultraviolet radiation (UVR) and inflammation …

Early life development and its divergence is influenced by multiple genetic, neurological,
and environmental factors. Atypical neurodevelopment, such as that observed in autism …

Behavioral genetics and cultural evolution have both revolutionized our understanding of
human behavior–largely independent of each other. Here, we reconcile these two fields …

Human eye color is highly heritable, but its genetic architecture is not yet fully understood.
We report the results of the largest genome-wide association study for eye color to date …
