Join a seminar presentation by Dr. Sarah Tishkoff, the David and Lyn Silfen University Professor at the University of Pennsylvania, as she explores African Evolutionary Genomics and the reconstruction of human evolution and complex adaptive traits. Discover how field work, laboratory research, and computational methods combine to examine African population history, genetic basis of various traits including anthropometric, cardiovascular, metabolic, and immune-related characteristics, and human adaptation to diverse environments and diets. Learn from a distinguished researcher who advocates for including ethnically diverse global populations in genetics and genomics research. Dr. Tishkoff, a member of multiple prestigious academies including the National Academy of Sciences and recipient of numerous awards including the NIH Pioneer Award, shares insights from her research supported by major institutions such as the National Institutes of Health and the Chan Zuckerberg Institute. Gain valuable knowledge about human genetic diversity and evolution from the President Elect of the American Society of Human Genetics and a leading expert in African genomics research.
