CARTA: Implications of Anthropogeny for Medicine and Public Health

Exploring the evolution of humans is crucial for understanding human diseases. Experts discuss new applications of evolutionary biology to medicine and health to understand illnesses such as obesity and other metabolic diseases, sleep disorders, problems associated with reproductive health, and disorders resulting from inappropriate immune responses.
