Splicing Variants Contribute to Genetic Variation Between Modern and Archaic Humans

Studying splicing variants reveals the effects of genetic differences in pre-mRNA splicing between modern and archaic humans, and provides insights into how natural selection acted on splicing in human evolution. This web page was produced as an assignment for an undergraduate course at Davidson College. Read more here. Studying variation in hominin evolution can be critical…
