The increasing availability of ancient DNA (aDNA) from human groups across space and
time has yielded deep insights into the movements of our species. However, given the …

As anatomically modern humans dispersed out of Africa, they encountered and mated with
now extinct hominins, including Neanderthals and Denisovans. It is now well established …

Human adaptation to environment is complex trait. Given close connection of circadian
rhythms with environment, it is quite evident to suppose that adaptation played a significant …

The present study aimed to develop a TaqMan genoty** card for molecular chronotype
assessment based on a predictive panel of 35 previously identified genetic variants. A …

Humans have long pondered their genesis. The answer to the great question of where
Homo sapiens come from has evolved in conjunction with biotechnologies that have …

Social schedules in addition to the biological rhythms guide behaviors. Sleep is among
these guided behaviors, because the sleep–wakefulness cycle is a product of the …

Interbreeding between modern humans and archaic hominins, including Neanderthals and
Denisovans, occurred as modern humans migrated outside of Africa. Here, we report on …

The article narrates the success story of the investigations of S Pääbo and his team. It
centres around the analysis of paleogenomes of extinct hominins, our immediate ancestors …

Understanding partial genetic backgrounds illuminates the genetic architecture of complex
traits and diseases, revealing how diverse genetic backgrounds contribute to phenotypic …

Interspecific gene flow plays a critical role in evolutionary biology. It shapes population
genetic composition and speciation dynamics, as well as influencing species' ability to …
