[QUOTE]Originally posted by Ish Gebor: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Cass/: [qb] [QUOTE]Originally posted by capra: [qb] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Doug M: [qb]Out of all the places on earth, the population history of Africa is the least understood but whenever they claim to want to unravel it, they come up with "ancient Eurasians" as the explanation for everything..... Seriously? [/qb][/QUOTE]Seriously... no they don't. Do you even read frigging papers about African population history? Do you even *care* about it? Because all I see from you is obsessing about labels. Hey man, they can't just waltz in, get permission to destructively test precious ancient remains, then recover DNA that's been sitting in a hot climate for tens of thousands of years just because they want to! They would *love* to be able to do that. [/qb][/QUOTE]Yet you're in the same boat as him with your OOA dogma. I saw you on Eurogenes blog; some posters there criticize OOA in the comments. You, or Davidski never respond or rebut the criticisms, but just throw ad hominem. Here's Davidski's responce about a 2017 paper by Chinese scientists who support Multiregionalism- "ramblings of madmen" Despite the fact the paper was written by some of the top scientists in China. And who's Davidski again? Not even a scientist and has zero qualifications, yet he's slagging off some of China's top scientists just because they question the Out of Africa religious orthodoxy. As someone says in the comments- [QUOTE] The Chinese team doesn't share this strange Western fascination with Africa. They like China. [/QUOTE] http://eurogenes.blogspot.co.uk/2017/05/some-strange-stuff-at-biorxiv-lately.html [/qb][/QUOTE]Hi hi hi … :rolleyes: Dr Elizabeth Atkinson completed her PhD at the Washington University in St. Louis medical school where she worked on an interdisciplinary project examining the genetic architecture and evolvability of brain traits in primates. She utilized quantitative genetic tools and QTL mapping to isolate the genomic regions that affect variation in gyrification (the folding pattern of the cerebral cortex) and characterized its modularity structure in a number of biological domains: genetics, development, anatomy, and functional connectivity. She currently works with Dr. Brenna Henn on biomedical and evolution-oriented projects utilizing the lab's extensive dataset from the African Genome Variation Project. Her work will focus on identifying genetic variants associated with disease risk in African populations, investigating the evolutionary history of these risk alleles, and employing quantitative and population genetics on this genome pool with the goals of designing a SNP chip tailored for African DNA and improving sequencing methods for human groups that are underrepresented in medical studies.
