Additional Resources
EvMedEd
EvMedEd provides links to all available authoritative resources for evolutionary medicine. Teachers and students will find it especially useful, but it is also for scientists, clinicians and anyone curious about how evolutionary biology is being used to understand disease and improve health.
EvMed Blog, Center for Evolution & Medicine, Arizona State University
The ASU Center for Evolution & Medicine is a university-wide Presidential Initiative whose mission is to improve human health by establishing evolutionary biology as an essential basic science for medicine, worldwide. The Center brings leading scientists to ASU to join existing faculty in research that demonstrates the power of evolutionary biology to address problems in medicine and public health.
Becoming Human
"The Institute of Human Origins (IHO) conducts, interprets and publicizes scientific research on the human career. IHO's unique approach brings together scientists from diverse disciplines to develop integrated, bio-behavioral investigations of human evolution."
Sapiens
An editorially independent publication of the Wenner-Gren Foundation for Anthropological Research
Paleopathology Association - Paleopathology Links
"The goal of the following list is to use the potential of the Internet in order to share knowledge about new and ongoing projects, journals and institutions active in the area of Paleopathology and related sciences worldwide."
OMIM (Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man)
Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man (OMIM®) is a continuously updated catalog of human genes and genetic disorders and traits, with particular focus on the molecular relationship between genetic variation and phenotypic expression. It is thus considered to be a phenotypic companion to the Human Genome Project. OMIM is a continuation of Dr. Victor A. McKusick's Mendelian Inheritance in Man, which was published through 12 editions, the last in 1998. OMIM is currently biocurated at the McKusick-Nathans Institute of Genetic Medicine, The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine.
John Hawks Weblog: Paleoanthropology, Genetics and Evolution
"John Hawks is the Vilas-Borghesi Distinguished Achievement Professor of Anthropology at the University of Wisconsin—Madison. I work on the fossil and genetic record of human evolution."
Human Origins: What Does it Mean to Be Human?
"The Human Origins Program at the Smithsonian isdedicated to understanding the biological and cultural foundations of human life. The Human Origins Program strives to develop public awareness about human origins and evolutionary history. The dissemination of new research and new ideas in the field of paleoanthropology is central to our mission."
