Abstract
Understanding the evolution of human traits is a fundamental yet challenging question. In a recent Cell Genomics article, Kun et al.1 integrate large-scale genomic and phenotypic data, including deep-learning-derived imaging phenotypes, with temporal annotations to estimate the timing of evolutionary changes that led to differences in traits between modern humans and primates or hominin ancestors.
