Interoception and Mental Health
Interoception refers to the process by which the nervous system senses, interprets, and integrates signals originating from within the body, providing a moment-by-moment mapping of the body's internal landscape across conscious and unconscious levels. Interoceptive signaling has been considered a component process of reflexes, urges, feelings, drives, adaptive responses, and cognitive and emotional experiences, highlighting its contributions to t…
Migration History
The question of where modern humans evolved and how they spread to where they are now is not new. Darwin suggested that humans evolved in and spread out from Africa. This insight, together with Darwin's notebook sketch of an evolutionary tree of descent, forms the conceptual basis of all attempts to map human migrations. While different species can be placed on a tree of descent using unique new morphological features, such specific, unambiguous …
A genomic history of Aboriginal Australia
The population history of Aboriginal Australians remains largely uncharacterized. Here we generate high-coverage genomes for 83 Aboriginal Australians (speakers of Pama–Nyungan languages) and 25 Papuans from the New Guinea Highlands. We find that Papuan and Aboriginal Australian ancestors diversified 25–40 thousand years ago (kya), suggesting pre-Holocene population structure in the ancient continent of Sahul (Australia, New Guinea and Tasmania).…

New methodologies for historical linguistics
Recent research claims that analysis of lexical cognate classes for a basic wordlist can reproduce linguistic subgroups within the Austronesian family (Gray et al. 2009). The analysis is open to question in two respects. Primarily, the lexically-based classification, primed with pre-established cognate classes of the family it seeks to emulate, fails to differentiate shared retentions from shared innovations. Secondly, languages and language fami…

A single southern exit of modern humans from Africa
Correcting for Purifying Selection
The great arc of dispersal of modern humans
Response to Peter Bellwood and Jared Diamond (2005)
This response is in continuance of a correspondance concerning a paragraph quotation from a review by Diamond and Bellwood in Science (2003), and the issue of whether that paragraph could be taken
Single, Rapid Coastal Settlement of Asia Revealed by Analysis of Complete Mitochondrial Genomes
A recent dispersal of modern humans out of Africa is now widely accepted, but the routes taken across Eurasia are still disputed. We show that mitochondrial DNA variation in isolated “relict” populations in southeast Asia supports the view that there was only a single dispersal from Africa, most likely via a southern coastal route, through India and onward into southeast Asia and Australasia. There was an early offshoot, leading ultimately to the…
The 'Express Train from Taiwan to Polynesia'
Renfrew's concept of an Indo-European expansion was carefully hedged with strict caveats to avoid earlier methodological and political pitfalls. His 'farming-language dispersal' hypothesis has inspired others to seek similar examples among other language families. This review argues that the model has gone awry in one of these, the 'Expres Train from Taiwan to Polynesia' hypothesis. The persistence of the Austronesian language/rice-farming hypoth…
