Toward DNA-based facial composites: preliminary results and validation
The potential of constructing useful DNA-based facial composites is forensically of great
interest. Given the significant identity information coded in the human face these predictions …

Let's face it—complex traits are just not that simple
The idea that we can reconstruct a human face from a DNA sample has great appeal: DNA
from a crime scene could be used to create a facial image of a suspect; the faces of …

Use of a natural hybrid zone for genomewide association mapping of craniofacial traits in the house mouse
The identification of the genes involved in morphological variation in nature is still a major
challenge. Here, we explore a new approach: we combine 178 samples from a natural …

The “contemporary synthesis”: When politically inclusive genomic science relies on biological notions of race
D Fullwiley - Isis, 2014 - journals.uchicago.edu
This essay outlines the emergence of a contemporary synthesis regarding racial thinking in
genetic science and in society more broadly. A departure from what Julian Huxley in 1942 …
