It is a deep question, from deep in our history: when did human language as we know it emerge? A new survey of genomic ...

For thousands of years, Neanderthals flourished across Eurasia. But new research suggests their genetic diversity plummeted ...

A recent study compared features of Neanderthals' inner ears across space and time to extrapolate what happened to them tens of thousands of years ago.

Recent fossil analysis is reshaping our understanding of Neanderthal origins, questioning long-held assumptions about their ...

A new genomic study reveals how Indigenous traditional farming practices have shaped the evolution of manioc – one of the world’s most important staple crops – for the better. The domestication of ...

Researchers used powerful technology to analyse thousands of individual cells at once, considering which genes are active.

The foundation of the study stems from an Amish community in Indiana, where researchers found a genetic variation in about 10% of the population allows them to live, on average, a decade longer.

A research team led by Andrea Eveland, PhD, associate member at the Donald Danforth Plant Science Center, has uncovered key ...

In his work, Howell and his team leveraged nine strains of mice with different genetic backgrounds designed to better reflect human variability, generating data on age-related genetic and ...

London, UK. Recent research confirms the relatively minor role that genetics plays in our health, with the ‘exposome’, defined as the totality of exposures individuals experience ...
