Happy to have worked on this project with @mashaals.bsky.social , Emilia Huerta-Sanchez and Valeria Añorve-Garibay. We analyzed how stabilizing and directional selection cause problems to predict traits in ancient samples.

When in evolutionary time does accelerated genomic change occur across phenotypes? Our study out in Cell Genomics led by Eucharist Kun, with Vagheesh Narasimhan integrates comparative, functional, and ancient genomic data with GWAS. Read more www.cell.com/cell-genomic...

The trait-specific timing of accelerated genomic change in the human lineage

Kun et al. examine the timing of accelerated genomic changes in human evolution by linking human traits to genomic annotations related to distinct evolutionary points. Their findings reveal that skele...
