Promoter switching in response to changing environment and elevated expression of protein-coding genes overlapping at their 5’ ends

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Despite the number of studies focused on sense-antisense transcription, the key question of whether such organization evolved as a regulator of gene expression or if this is only a byproduct of other regulatory processes has not been elucidated to date ...

The relevance of late MSA mandibles on the emergence of modern morphology in Northern Africa

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
North Africa is a key area for understanding hominin population movements and the expansion of our species. It is home to the earliest currently known Homo sapiens (Jebel Irhoud) and several late Middle Stone Age (MSA) fossils, notably Kébibat ...

Evolution of Human Intelligence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
This chapter focuses on the evolution of intelligence and Richard D. Alexander's 1989 paper that explains how the human psyche has evolved. Alexander's prescient paper was one of the first studies to comprehensively seek to explain the “why” question of human consciousness and other core facets of the human mind.

The evolution of human cooperation [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2019
Darwin viewed cooperation as a perplexing challenge to his theory of natural selection. Natural selection generally favors the evolution of behaviors that enhance the fitness of individuals. Cooperative behavior, which increases the fitness of a recipient at the expense of the donor, contradicts this logic. William D.
