TL;DR: The high homogeneity of the Danish population could render population structure a lesser concern for the upcoming large-scale gene-mapping studies in the country.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors argue that a mature biocultural paradigm needs to be informed by at least 7 major research clusters: (a) gene-culture coevolution; (b) human life history theory; (c) evolutionary social psychology; (d) anthropological research on contemporary hunter-gatherers; (e) bioculture socioeconomic and political history; (f) evolutionary aesthetics; and (g) bioocultural research in the humanities (religions, ideologies, the history of ideas, and the arts).

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the role of climate and topography in shaping the distribution of Neanderthals at different spatial scales and found that annual rainfall and winter temperatures were the most important predictors at the continental scale, while topography and summer rainfall defined habitat suitability at the local scale.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the role of research bias and taphonomic bias in the archaeological invisibility of Neanderthals in Southern Scandinavia during the Eemian Interglacial and Early Weichselian Glaciation.

TL;DR: The European discovery and early ideas about orangutans followed by the contrasting experiences with these animals of the co-founders of evolution by natural selection, Charles Darwin and Alfred Russel Wallace are surveyed.
