The divide between modern humans and our Neanderthal cousins keeps shrinking.

' People with Neanderthal genes didn’t abruptly vanish, Akey says—their offspring just acquired more and more modern human DNA. “They were overwhelmed by waves of modern humans extending out of Africa,” he says. “The modern human population eventually absorbed the Neanderthals.” '

Nice to meet you on Mastodon.ca! ​🇨🇦 ​Intro:Ph.D. (Yale '87); research in #Genomics, #Cytogenetics, #Bioinformatics, #Humangenetics. Established biotech co, #Cytognomix (2009; cytognomix.com).

Having switched servers, I should give another #intro: I’m a #geneticist with a background in #neuroscience, #evodevo, #HumanGenetics, and #MarineBio. These days I work in #PublicHealth and #epi spaces, doing #DataScience, #sequencing, and #rnd, usually in #R. I used to be a #sysadmin, for my sins.

#PunkMusic, punk ethos, all things #ocean, cranky lefty #politics, #cocktails, #ttrpg, and #baking are all pretty much guaranteed if you stick around.
