Genetic Anthropology

Genetic anthropology is the study of how human genetics influences our understanding of human evolution, migration, and diversity. It combines genetics, archaeology, and anthropology to investigate the connections between our DNA, ancient populations, and cultural practices. By analyzing genetic data, scientists can trace lineage, understand how humans adapted to different environments, and explore the relationships among various populations. This field helps reveal the complex interplay between our biology and cultural history, providing insights into how modern humans have evolved and how we are interconnected through shared ancestry.
