Infections have imposed strong selection pressures throughout human evolution, making the
study of natural selection's effects on immunity genes highly complementary to disease …

The extent of the devastation of the Black Death pandemic (1346–1353) on European
populations is known from documentary sources and its bacterial source illuminated by …

Genome-wide scans for signals of selection have become a routine part of the analysis of
population genomic variation datasets and have resulted in compelling evidence of …

Summary We investigate a 2,000-year genetic transect through Scandinavia spanning the
Iron Age to the present, based on 48 new and 249 published ancient genomes and …

The prevalence of chronic, non-communicable diseases has risen sharply in recent
decades, especially in industrialized countries. While several studies implicate the …

Klunk et al. 1 analysed ancient DNA from before, during and after the Black Death, and
claimed that large allele frequency changes at immune genes in aggregate, and at four …

Enterovirus infection and enterovirus infection with severe complications (EVSC) are critical
issues in several aspects. However, there is no suitable predictive tool for these infections. A …
