I would expect the human brain, which has done well by us so far, will continue to adapt to those changes.»

Author: Bruce Lahn
«If we look at multiple genes, the ethnic variations such as the ones we found are likely to be counterbalanced by other differences. Just because these genes are still evolving, doesn't necessarily mean they make you any smarter. We've evolved genes for selfishness, violence, cruelty รป- all of which are in place because they may make survival easier.»
