Alexander Platt
Alexander Platt is a geneticist at the University of Pennsylvania who has contributed to the understanding of the genetic exchange between Homo sapiens and Neanderthals. His recent research, published in the journal Science, explores the distribution of Neanderthal genes in the human genome, particularly on the X chromosome, and suggests that selective mating practices may have influenced the presence of these genes in modern humans.
