Determine the common ancestor’s relationship to each person (for example, grandparent or great-grandparent). 3. In the topmost row of the chart, find the common ancestor’s relationship to cousin number one. In the far-left column, find the common ancestor’s relationship to cousin number two. 4.

The Geography of Recent Genetic Ancestry Across Europe
The Geography of Recent Genetic Ancestry across Europe. Peter Ralph1 and Graham Coop2 1 Department of Evolution and Ecology & Center for Population Biology, University of California, Davis. 2 Department of Molecular and Computational Biology, University of Southern California. To whom correspondence should be addressed: [email protected],[email protected] Abstract The recent genealogical history of human populations is a complex mosaic formed by individual migration, large-scale population movements, and other demographic events. Population genomics datasets can provide a window into this recent history, as rare traces of recent shared genetic ancestry are detectable due to long segments of shared genomic material. We make use of genomic data for 2257 Europeans (in the POPRES dataset) to conduct one of the first surveys of recent genealogical ancestry over the past three thousand years at a continental scale. We detected 1.9 million shared long genomic segments, and used the lengths of these to infer the distri- bution of shared ancestors across time and geography. We find that a pair of modern Europeans living in neighboring populations share around 2{12 genetic common ancestors from the last 1500 years, and upwards of 100 genetic ancestors from the previous 1000 years. These numbers drop off exponentially with geographic distance, but since these genetic ancestors are a tiny fraction of common genealogical ancestors, individuals from opposite ends of Europe are still expected to share millions of common genealogical ancestors over the last 1000 years. There is also substantial regional variation in the number of shared genetic ancestors. For example, there are especially high numbers of common ancestors shared between many eastern populations which date roughly to the migration period (which includes the Slavic and Hunnic expansions into that region).

The Evolutionary Origins of Kinship Structures
THE EVOLUTIONARY ORIGINS OF KINSHIP STRUCTURES Bernard Chapais Department of Anthropology University of Montreal Montreal, Quebec CANADA [email protected] Patrilineal kinship structures are among the most complex manifestations of the impact of kinship on human social life. Despite the fact that such structures take highly diverse forms across cultures, that they are absent in many human societies and, moreover, that they are not observed in other primate species, a comparative analysis of human and nonhuman primate societies reveals that human kinship structures have deep evolutionary roots and clear biological underpinnings. I argue here that the first patrilineal kinship structures came into being as the emergent products of the combination, in the course of human evolution, of ten biologically grounded components, seven of which are observed in our closest relative, the chimpanzee, the remaining three being consequences of the evolution of pair-bonding in humans. This indicates that contemporary patrilineal kinship structures are not cultural creations, but cultural constructs that built upon, and diversified from a rich biological substrate. The same reasoning applies to many other complex human kinship phenomena, such as marital arrangements. I conclude that models and theories from cultural anthropology must be compatible with the relevant biological evidence. Introduction There seems to be a growing appraisal by cultural anthropologists that some of the most basic kinship features that humans share with other primates, such as kin groups, kin recognition, the tendency to favor one’s kin, incest avoidance, and many others, reflect our common evolutionary history and biological heritage with those species (e.g., Gode- lier 2004; Jones 2004, 2010; Hill et al.

Introduction, scope and objectives 9 2. Review of preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) to 12 avoid mitochondrial disease 3. Review of maternal spindle transfer (MST) and pronuclear 14 transfer (PNT) to avoid mitochondrial disease 4. Recommendations and further research 37 Annexes Annex A: Methodology of review 41 Annex B: Evidence reviewed 42 Annex C: Summary of recommendations for further research made 46 in 2011, 2013, 2014 Annex D: Glossary of terms 52 2 Executive summary Mitochondria are small structures present in cells that produce much of the energy required by the cell. They contain a small amount of DNA that is inherited exclusively from the mother through the mitochondria present in her eggs. Mutations in this mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) can cause a range of rare but serious diseases, which can be fatal. However, there are several novel treatment methods with the potential to reduce the transmission of abnormal mtDNA from a mother to her child, and thus avoid mitochondrial disease in the child and subsequent generations. Such treatments have not been carried out in humans anywhere in the world and they are currently illegal in the UK. This is because the primary legislation that governs assisted reproduction, the Human Fertilisation and Embryology (HFE) Act 1990 (as amended), only permits eggs and embryos that have not had their nuclear or mtDNA altered to be used for treatment.
