Teasing apart the effects of selection and demography on genetic polymorphism remains
one of the major challenges in the analysis of population genomic data. The traditional …

The history of click-speaking Khoe-San, and African populations in general, remains poorly
understood. We genotyped ∼2.3 million single-nucleotide polymorphisms in 220 southern …

Southern Africa is consistently placed as a potential region for the evolution of Homo sapiens.
We present genome sequences, up to 13x coverage, from seven ancient individuals from …

We investigate conditions under which a model with stochastic demography or population
structure converges to the coalescent with a linear change in timescale. We argue that this is a …

Island Southeast Asia has recently produced several surprises regarding human history, but
the region’s complex demography remains poorly understood. Here, we report ∼2.3 million …

Africa is the continent with the greatest genetic diversity among humans and the level of
diversity is further enhanced by incorporating non-majority groups, which are often understudied…

The ability to digest milk into adulthood, lactase persistence (LP), as well as specific genetic
variants associated with LP, is heterogeneously distributed in global populations [1–4]. …
