The Meaning of Modern Human Genetic Variation
Presenter(s): Dr. Marcus W. Feldman, Director, Morrison Institute for Population and Resource Studies, Stanford University
Status: Available
Air Date: 3/20/2008
Air Time: 4:00 PM EST
Length: 1 Hour 25 Minutes 40 Seconds
Modern molecular biology allows us to study human genetic variation on a scale far exceeding previous possibilities. This allows ancestry at the continental and, in some cases, finer level to be estimated. These estimates can be related to what is known and/or speculated about patterns of human migration. The risks associated with such studies in terms of debates about the biology of "race," and medical, behavioral or other uses of information about ancestry will be discussed.
