嘉宾简介:Mark Stoneking 教授是德国著名的遗传学家,马克斯·普朗克进化人类学研究所-人类群体历史研究团队的负责人以及莱比锡大学的生物人类学荣誉教授。其研究方向是利用分子遗传学方法解决人类起源、迁徙、群体关系以及人类进化过程中自然选择的影响等人类学相关问题;1987年曾与其博士生导师Allan Wilson一起通过引入“线粒体夏娃”概念(基于线粒体DNA假设的所有现存人类的共同母系祖先)而对“走出非洲说”做出贡献;最近发表新著《Introduction to Molecular Anthropology》(《分子人类学入门》,Wiley出版社2017年出版)。
Introduction of Prof. Mark Stoneking: Prof. Mark Stoneking is a geneticist currently working at the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Leipzig, Germany, where he supervises the Human Population History Group and is Honorary Professor of Biological Anthropology at the University of Leipzig. His research interests involve using molecular genetic methods to address questions of anthropological interest concerning the origins, migrations, and relationships of human populations, and the influence of selection during human evolution. He, along with his doctoral advisor Allan Wilson, contributed to the Out of Africa Theory in 1987 by introducing the concept of Mitochondrial Eve, a hypothetical common mother of all living humans based on mitochondrial DNA. He is also the author of a new textbook, Introduction to Molecular Anthropology (Wiley 2017).
