I’m grateful to be featured in New Scientist in coverage of recent work on human evolution after the adoption of farming.

The article, “Human populations evolved in similar ways after we began farming,” reports evidence from more than 7,000 ancient and modern genomes and highlights how selection appears to have acted in parallel across different populations worldwide.

In the piece, I commented on the analytical framework developed by Laura Colbran and colleagues, noting that the method identifies both established and previously unknown genomic regions under selection and takes full advantage of the rapidly growing ancient DNA record.

I’m excited to release a new way to discover and find new restaurants in Adelaide. We are so lucky here to have so many greate foody spots. However, that makes choosing one difficult sometimes.
