Some of our work has been highlighted in a feature article in GenomeWeb:
From the article entitled “Copy Machines”:
— CNVs also have potentially significant implications for understanding evolutionary processes, Lee notes, citing a recent paper that he and his fellow Harvard researchers Rebecca Iskow and Omer Gokcumen published in Trends in Genetics in which they suggest that, although it is still early days in terms of understanding the role of the variants in evolution, “the scientific community should anticipate the increasingly accurate discovery and analysis of CNVs, which, in turn, will highlight new regions of the human genome affecting adaptation.” —
