Greetings–
Happy Thanksgiving! In honor of the turkey fest, here’s a breifer-than-usual Friday’s Elk this week.
Europe Evolving
–This week in the New York Times, I reported about a study of 230 genomes retrieved from European skeletons ranging from 8,500 to 2,300 years in age. They create a chronicle of human evolution, documenting how the agricultural revolution altered the genetic landscape of a continent. Check it out.
