    Jenny Tung is an evolutionary anthropologist investigating the interplay between social experiences, genomics, and health. Combining field research with cutting-edge techniques for studying many genes at once, Tung is revealing the molecular mechanisms by which social and environmental stressors have long-lasting impacts on health, longevity, and evolutionary fitness. In February 2019, Tung was awarded a MacArthur Foundation Fellowship - also known as the “genius grant” - for her work.

    Came here for primate evolution and found hominid evolution.
    Video was missing a big chunk in the beginning and skipped straight to the end.

    I just hope that we do not share much DNA with self-deluded trolls. Nice job, Jenny.

    ......Creatures are more interesting, fascinating, and grand, then creatures project on them........Lack of positive projection, makes creatures seem insignificant and closes communication........With about over two hundred primate/monkey relatives, our species is more vast then the about eight billion modern humans........The great apes that are like us,......herefore the land is filled with our style of living and experience, that gives us a great common wisdom.........

    All Sounds good correct .. But there is
    Much more.. Because the ancient
    Egyptians Say There is more ...no
    Monkeys for the Egyptians and they
    Only had a culture that lasted for 3000yrd

    Really you justfigured out that we didn't we didn't kill off or they didn't die off that we absorbed the Neanderthal there are dandruff DNA amongst us and there are DNA Neanderthal DNA and body similarities you just have to know where to look probably like red hair!

    The Ancient Egyptians Spent 5 Millennia
    Telling us What’s it all about ..
    And the Spirit of Humanity is where it’s at..its logical..
    Nobody wants to come from
    A monkey .. And I certainly do not

    I really like BIOLOGY but I definitely disagree with Darwin's idea. A totally fake theory

      Publish a paper with your research backing up your conclusion and we can talk about it

      So it is that Evolution is the basis of Biology.

      there is no biology without evolution. Nothing makes sense without it. Continue coming to these videos however and you'll begin to see !

    What a joke. Adaptation yes, evolution is bull. The law of entropy..... mic 🎤 drop... physics is a b@#$& huh.
