A GWAS in Latin Americans highlights the convergent evolution of lighter skin pigmentation in Eurasia
(Springer Nature, 2019)
We report a genome-wide association scan in >6,000 Latin Americans for pigmentation of skin and eyes. We found eighteen signals of association at twelve genomic regions. These include one novel locus for skin pigmentation ...
The evolutionary roles of nutrition selection and dietary quality in the human brain size and encephalization
(2018-12-01)
Background: Humans and other primates have evolved particular morphological and biological traits (e.g., larger brains, slower growth, longer-lived offspring) that distinguish them from most other mammals. The evolution ...
Humanity from African Naissance to Coming Millennia
Humanity From African Naissance to Coming Millennia arises out of the world's first Dual Congress that was held at Sun City (South Africa) in 1998 that refers to a conjoint, integrated meeting of two international scientific ...

Transcriptional Enhancers in the FOXP2 Locus Underwent Accelerated Evolution in the Human Lineage
(Oxford University Press, 2019-08)
Unique human features such as complex language are the result of molecular evolutionary changes that modified developmental programs of our brain. The human-specific evolution of the forkhead box P2 (FOXP2) gene coding ...
Viral intra-host evolution in immunocompetent children contributes to human norovirus diversification at the global scale.
(Taylor and Francis, 2021)
Norovirus is a major cause of acute gastroenteritis. Human noroviruses present >30 different genotypes, with a single genotype (GII.4) predominating worldwide. Concurrent outbreaks of norovirus are often associated with ...

Can a few non-coding mutations make a human brain?
(John Wiley & Sons Inc, 2015-10)
The recent finding that the human version of a neurodevelopmental enhancer of the Wnt receptor Frizzled 8 (FZD8) gene alters neural progenitor cell cycle timing and brain size is a step forward to understanding human brain ...
