This study provides the first broad description of how the genome diversity of populations from Latin America has been shaped by the colonial history of the region. The research involved the collaboration of teams at universities across Latin America, the US and Europe, led by Dr. Andres Ruiz-Linares from University College London. ...> Full Article First study hints at insights to come from genes unique to humans (3/23/2008)Among the approximately 23,000 genes found in human DNA, scientists currently estimate that there may be as few as 50 to 100 that have no counterparts in other species. Expand that comparison to include the primate family known as hominoids, and there may be several hundred unique genes. ...> Full Article Gene's 'selective signature' aids detection of natural selection in microbial evolution (3/22/2008)Microbes, the oldest and most numerous creatures on Earth, have a rich genomic history that offers clues to changes in the environment that have occurred over hundreds of millions of years. ...> Full Article Finding deep roots, new genome software infers ancestry with high accuracy (3/21/2008)New genomics analysis software developed by computer scientists at Stanford appears far more adept than prior methods at unraveling the ancestry of individuals. ...> Full Article Cutting-edge Computing Helps Discover Origin Of Life On Earth (3/20/2008)
