The craniofacial shape of modern humans embodies genomic signatures of evolution, diversity, and clinical conditions

2025-12-31

Abstract excerpt

Human craniofacial morphology is a hallmark of our species’ diversity and evolutionary history, shaped by adaptation, introgression, and global dispersal. Cranial globularization and chin emergence are well-documented morphological transformations whose genetic basis remains poorly understood, whereas Neandertal introgression is primarily documented through genomic evidence. How these evolutionary phenomena relate...
