I am interested in the contributions of biotic and abiotic factors in the evolution of Neogene mammals, including hominins

The Reich Lab focuses on the following key topics: Building an Ancient DNA Atlas of Humanity: Ancient DNA allows us to go beyond the two-dimensional understanding of human genetic variation based on the coordinates of latitude and longitude, and to...

My research interests include human evolutionary genetics with a current focus on genetic and environmental factors underlying neurodevelopmental disorders.

There are millions of sequence variants between humans and other species. The Song lab aims to identify and characterize the variants that contributed to human-specific traits, with a particular focus on the evolution of the human brain. We are also...

My research focusses mainly on questions related to aspects of competition and cooperation within and between groups. I make use of our closest living relatives, bonobos and chimpanzees as referential models, to infer about potential selective pressures...

Of late I have focused on the information in hydrogen and oxygen isotopes of animal and microbial systems. In addition, examination of the dietary impacts at the compound specific level is a ongoing interest.

I am a terrestrial paleoecologist who explores the role of climate and environmental change on mammalian and human evolution. I do this using organic and stable isotope geochemistry on fossil teeth and ancient sediments on land and from the deep sea.

Christina Warinner is the Landon T. Clay Professor of Scientific Archaeology in the Departments of Anthropology and Human Evolutionary Biology at Harvard University, and she leads international research groups at the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary...

I am interested in animal behavioral ecology and how it can help us understand the evolution of human social and political behavior. Since 1987 I have studied chimpanzee behavior in Kibale National Park, Uganda (Kibale Chimpanzee Project, https:/...
