Neanderthals lost genetic diversity around 110,000 years ago. Researchers confirmed this by studying fossilized inner ears.

A new study suggests the unique human version of the NOVA1 protein developed after our ancestors split from Neanderthals on ...

From this trove of genetic information, researchers have already identified dozens of examples of relatively recent evolution. Anatomically modern humans migrated from Africa sometime between ...

Could a novel approach to genetic studies give us a clearer picture of how evolutionary adaptations occur? That's what the findings of new research on a common backyard bird, the house finch ...

New research suggests a genetic variant in the NOVA1 protein may have played a key role in the emergence of human speech.

Scientists employ deep learning to analyze and compare gene regulation across various cell types in human and chicken brains.
