Our ancestors acquired morphological, cognitive and metabolic modifications that enabled
humans to colonize diverse habitats, develop extraordinary technologies and reshape the …

Skin color diversity is the most variable and noticeable phenotypic trait in humans resulting
from constitutive pigmentation variability. This paper will review the characterization of skin …

INTRODUCTION Variation in pigmentation among human populations may reflect local
adaptation to regional light environments, because dark skin is more photoprotective …

We extend the scope of European palaeogenomics by sequencing the genomes of Late
Upper Palaeolithic (13,300 years old, 1.4-fold coverage) and Mesolithic (9,700 years old …

North Africa is a key region for understanding human history, but the genetic history of its
people is largely unknown. We present genomic data from seven 15,000-year-old modern …

Prehistoric population structure associated with the transition to an agricultural lifestyle in
Europe remains a contentious idea. Population-genomic data from 11 Scandinavian Stone …

Approximately 15 genes have been directly associated with skin pigmentation variation in
humans, leading to its characterization as a relatively simple trait. However, by assembling a …

Generative models have shown breakthroughs in a wide spectrum of domains due to recent
advancements in machine learning algorithms and increased computational power. Despite …

The primary biological role of human skin pigmentation is as a mediator of penetration of
ultraviolet radiation (UVR) into the deep layers of skin and the cutaneous circulation. Since …

Adaptation drives genomic changes; however, evidence of specific adaptations in humans
remains limited. We found that inhabitants of the northern Argentinean Andes, an arid region …
