What Ancient DNA Is Teaching Us About Human Evolution.

Recent studies of ancient DNA are reshaping our understanding of human evolution, revealing dramatic shifts in our genetic makeup driven by farming and disease exposure.  From increased resistance to tuberculosis to changes in physical traits, our genome has adapted rapidly over the last 10,000 years.  How will these findings redefine what it means to be human?

Paradigm Shift
A single protein may have helped shape the emergence of spoken language

The origins of human language remain mysterious. Are we the only animals truly capable of complex speech? Are Homo sapiens the only hominids who could give detailed directions to a far-off freshwater source or describe the nuanced purples and reds of a dramatic sunset?
