Ancient Admixture into Africa from the ancestors of non-Africans

2020-06-01

Abstract excerpt

Genetic diversity across human populations has been shaped by demographic history, making it possible to infer past demographic events from extant genomes. However, demographic inference in the ancient past is difficult, particularly around the out-of-Africa event in the Late Middle Paleolithic, a period of profound importance to our species’ history. Here we present SMCSMC , a Bayesian method for inference of ti...
