Science at Cal Lecture - Uncovering the Past: Using Genetic Data to Understand Human History
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 31 июл 2022
- Recent advances in sequencing DNA have opened up new opportunities to use genetic data to improve our understanding of human history and evolution. For example, genetic data can be used to reconstruct migration patterns, understand how genomes change across different species or lineages, and understand how our evolutionary history impacts disease and adaptation. To illustrate this work, Dr. Priya Moorjani, Assistant Professor in the Dept. of Molecular and Cell Biology and Center of Computational Biology, will discuss two ongoing projects within her lab: 1) Reconstructing the history of human-Neanderthal mixture using ancient genomes, and 2) Characterizing the patterns of major mixture events occurring in ancient Europe; both critical movements in human history. These analyses highlight the power of genomic data to elucidate the legacy of human migrations, providing insights that complement research done in archaeology and linguistics.

Brought to you by UC Berkeley’s Science at Cal.
Special thanks to Berkeley Community Media for filming this event. Berkeley Community Media is a media production haven for amateur to professional filmmakers, television producers and students of all forms of life! We are a P.E.G. access television media center living right in the heart of Berkeley, California! BCM's primary goal is to provide residents of Berkeley and beyond a space to learn how to produce media as well as share it with their community! Our television channels are on the air 24 hours a day, seven days a week, cablecasting voices from all over the San Francisco Bay Area! Look for us on B-TV Channels 28 & 33 on Comcast Cable in Berkeley, and on Channel 99 via AT&T U-Verse, and on the web: www.bcmtv.org
This is one of the best presentations I've seen on this area so far. Clear, wide-ranging, and in-depth. Wonderful.
Very clear and concise. It's truely amazing what we have learned in the last 10-20 years using ancient DNA.

Very interesting lecture! Thank you!
Excellent presentation!
Thank you for sharing this education.
Isn’t there an epigenetic stress effect that can influence the location of chromatid crossovers during Meiosis? If so, physiological stresses could result in a non- random generation of the preservation or mixing of chunks of a chromosome.

One of the best talks on the subject. But show more slides and less back of heads.
Who were the sumerians closely related to?
Genographic showed that both my HV* mitochondria and J2B Y chromosome are rare in India.,
Environment can only enable genetic potential.
The molecular clock of DNA mutations is ridiculous 😅
Punctuated equilibrium is not a molecular clock it is intelligent design 😅
Read Anatolian as Arabian. It's western cope and obfuscation.
Everybody came from somewhere
The presentation of scientific information does not need to include a series of political statements in the preamble. Keeps politics out of science.
That latinx designation is hateful
Those are designated labels they made up.
quit watching at intro--if u r that pc i doubt u would ever present real findings--i taink the Cherokee nation of NC for not killing all the edisto tribe in SC for my pc remark--sad-truly sad science is so untrustworthy--but at least i u let me know what u were at the start and i didn't waste time
You are dumbfounding, searching for information but unwilling to listen to anything you don’t want to hear.
It’s simple, they are being loaned out the land.
The Native Tribe is still part of the community, she might be Native.
Confronting the fact that you are on land taken with genocide is easy.
Only a true coward would just run away.
@@babaayman9658 u r truly limited and demonstrate a lack of education concerning history --genocide? I hate what happened to many Indians in the Americas and their history after the Europeans came but that is almost esactly the history of the disorganized celtic tribes when rome invaded gaul and England-- genocide--u r one bigot--do u even have a clue to how much unued land was in the Americas? have u ever read about the Aztecs sacrificing over 250,000 non-aztec indians before columbus ever set sail? 1485 if memory servives-- darn I am laughing at your total lack of history-history in context and ability to present a factual thought--u r amazing in that manner--genocide--- ever read about Montezuma's zoo of verious human types? I didn't think so---- darn I am about to break a rib laughing at u
I’d like to see a vigorous debate but that will never happen at UC Berkley.
Get woke someblace else. I am of here.
Hungary is in Central Europe, NOT in Eastern Europe!!
