Abstract excerpt
While the shared consensus genetic sequence of our species contains a great deal of information about our common biology, there is also much to be learned from the subtle genetic variations across our species. These variations are believed to be generally of little or no direct functional significance and predominantly reflect the chance accumulation of small genetic changes since our emergence as a species....
