Gene flow acts as a conduit of genetic variation among populations, while local adaptation arises when selection favours alleles suited to particular environmental conditions. In natural populations ...

Chimpanzees bear genetic adaptations that help them thrive in their different forest and savanna habitats, some of which may protect against malaria, according to a study by an international team led ...

The genome is more than just its sequence; epigenetic features of DNA, like chemical tags that may be attached, or how it's organized and structured, can have a significant impact on gene expression ...

Extreme heat is a complex public health problem driven by interactions at the individual, community, health system, and policy levels. Participatory systems science engages interested parties to ...
