Early modern human dispersal from Africa: genomic evidence for multiple waves of migration

Francesca Tassi, Silvia Ghirotto, Massimo Mezzavilla…·Guido Barbujani

The paper uses genomic data to show that early modern human dispersal from Africa involved multiple waves, with Australo-Melanesian populations retaining an ancient divergence signature.
