1. Where our feet have taken us : Examples of human contact, migration, and adaptation as revealed by ancient DNA
Sammanfattning : In spite of our extensive knowledge of the human past, certain key questions remain to be answered about human prehistory. One involves the nature of cultural change in material culture through time from the perspective of how different ancient human groups interacted with one another. LÄS MER
2. Human demographic history : Insights on the human past based on genomes from Southern through Central Africa
Sammanfattning : Evidence from paleontology, archaeology and population genetics support that modern humans originated in Africa. While the out-of-Africa event and subsequent colonization of all continents are well documented, human history in Africa at that time and before is less studied. LÄS MER
3. Mitochondria and Human Evolution
Sammanfattning : Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) has been a potent tool in studies of the evolution of modern humans, human migrations and the dynamics of human populations over time. The popularity of this cytoplasmic genome has largely been due to its clonal inheritance (in Man) allowing the tracing of a direct genetic line. LÄS MER
4. Modelling Evolution : From non-life, to life, to a variety of life
Sammanfattning : Life is able to replicate itself, e.g., a microorganism is able to divide into two identical ones, and a single plant is able to forest a whole island. LÄS MER
5. Evolution of human alpha-herpesviruses
Sammanfattning : Herpesviridae is a large virus family with more than 100 members, which are highly disseminated among animals. Three sub-families have been classified; alpha-herpesviruses, beta-herpesviruses and gamma-herpesviruses. LÄS MER
