Ardipithecus ramidus and the Paleobiology of Early Hominids
Hominid fossils predating the emergence of Australopithecus have been sparse and
fragmentary. The evolution of our lineage after the last common ancestor we shared with …

Evolution of human-specific neural SRGAP2 genes by incomplete segmental duplication
Gene duplication is an important source of phenotypic change and adaptive evolution. We
leverage a haploid hydatidiform mole to identify highly identical sequences missing from the …

Genetic and archaeological perspectives on the initial modern human colonization of southern Asia
It has been argued recently that the initial dispersal of anatomically modern humans from
Africa to southern Asia occurred before the volcanic “supereruption” of the Mount Toba …
