Check the website here: http://enlites.com/ Dr. Carles Lalueza-Fox is Director of the Natural Science Museum in Barcelona. He participated in the Neanderthal Genome Project and led the first retrieval of the genome of an 8,000-year-old European hunter-gatherer. His latest book is Identity: What DNA Can Tell Us About Ourselves. In this episode, we focus on Identity. We talk about identity from the perspective of genetics. We discuss how much genetic variation and similarity we find across humans; identical twins and behavioral genetics; the genetics of look-alikes; sex determination, sexual development, and gender; kinship genetics; and the genetics of royals and endogamy. We also talk about the ideas of “pure” populations and “race”, racism, and the political misuse of genetics; and how there is so much human interconnectedness. Finally, we discuss the future of genetic identity. -- A HUGE THANK YOU TO MY PATRONS/SUPPORTERS: PER HELGE LARSEN, BERNARDO SEIXAS, ADAM KESSEL, MATTHEW WHITINGBIRD, ARNAUD WOLFF, TIM HOLLOSY, HENRIK AHLENIUS, ROBERT WINDHAGER, RUI INACIO, ZOOP, MARCO NEVES,…","meta_description":"******Support the channel****** Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/thedissenter PayPal: paypal.me/thedissenter PayPal Subscription 1 Dollar: https://tinyurl…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":4184,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/the-dissenter-1161217/episodes/1248-carles-lalueza-fox-identity-what-dna-can-tell-us-about-ourselves/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-dissenter-1161217/1248-carles-lalueza-fox-identity-what-dna-can-tell-us-about-ourselves.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
