What is Convergent Evolution in High-Altitude Humans about?
This study investigates the convergent evolution of angiogenic traits in high-altitude Andean and Himalayan human populations, revealing that both groups have undergone selective events in angiogenic pathways despite partial genetic convergence. Using genomic data, the research identifies polygenic adaptations that enhance blood perfusion in response to hypobaric hypoxia, highlighting the role of specific genes in these adaptations. The findings contribute to understanding how natural selection shapes compl
