Anthropological genetics

Anthropological genetics is a branch of anthropology that studies the genetic variation and evolutionary history of human populations. It combines the fields of genetics and anthropology to understand how humans have adapted to different environments, how populations are related, and how historical migrations have shaped genetic diversity. By analyzing DNA, researchers can gain insights into our ancestry, health, and the relationships between different groups. This field helps to illuminate the complex story of human evolution and cultural development, offering valuable information about our past and present as a species.
