Got a notice in the mail awhile ago about a lecture at the Zoo that
might interest some of you.
GENETIC SECRETS: THE TALES GENES TELL.
Mitochondrial DNA: Clues in the search for the origins of modern humans.
Dr. Linda Vigilant will discuss progress, made possible by technological
advances, in understanding how traits are inherited, and what this new
knowledge may tell us about human evolution.
Dr. Vigilant is a research associate at Penn State Univ. Her genetic
studies involving mitochondrial DNA provide support for a theory of
human evolution that suggests a common female ancestor for modern
humans.
