Human population history and genetic adaptation in the Himalayan region

2019-01-01

Abstract excerpt

The Himalayan mountain range contains the highest peaks on Earth and has provided a diversity of environments for humans, some of which have required substantial genetic adaptation. I have used a combination of SNP-chip data, genome sequences and functional studies to explore the demographic history, genetic structure and signatures of adaptation in Himalayan populations. Eight hundred and eighty three individuals...
