L_2_12 — Paleogenomics of Africa: The Cradle Revisited

Africa is the cradle of human evolution — the continent where Homo sapiens originated, where the deepest branches of the human family tree diverge, and where the greatest genetic diversity in our species is found. Yet pa

L_2_07 — European Genetics and Three Ancestral Populations

The genetic history of Europe has been revolutionized by ancient DNA, revealing that most present-day Europeans can be modeled at a broad level as mixtures of three major ancestral components assembled over the past ~10,

L_2_15 — Population Structure of the Ancient Near East: Farming Spread Genetics

The Neolithic Revolution — the independent invention of agriculture in the Fertile Crescent (~10,000-8,000 BCE) — was one of the most consequential transformations in human history, and ancient DNA has revealed that the

R_2_03 — Neanderthal Cognition and Interbreeding

For over a century, Neanderthals were depicted as brutish, cognitively inferior "cave men" — a failed evolutionary experiment replaced by superior modern humans. This narrative has been DEMOLISHED by 21st-century genetic
