The interaction of demography and genetics is of basic importance for the genetic structure of human as well as animal and plant populations. The impact is visible particularly in genetic epidemiology, as well as in physical anthropology and molecular ecology. Genetic epidemiology is a branch of science which is concerned with the distribution and evolution of genetic diseases in human populati...

Few biologists have studied the evolutionary processes at work in indoor environments. Yet indoor environments comprise approximately 0.5% of ice-free land area--an area as large as the subtropical coniferous forest biome. Here we review the emerging subfield of 'indoor biome' studies. After defining the indoor biome and tracing its deep history, we discuss some of its evolutionary dimensions. ...

Behavior, ecology and demography of owl monkeys (Aotus vociferans) in Yasuní National Park, Ecuador
Given its broad geographical distribution, the genus Aotus provides a rich ground for comparative studies that evaluate how different ecological factors influence the morphology, behavior, ecology and demography of closely related species. During 18 months we collected demographic, ranging and activity data from owl monkeys (Aotus vociferans) in Yasuní National Park in eastern Ecuador. To colle...

In this article, I explore what a critical environmental perspective would look like in Melanesia, where the distinction between nature and culture, and the expectation that science interprets the former in terms of the latter, may not apply. I consider changes in scientific knowledge production and the shift from cultural ecology to political ecology in Melanesian anthropology, including the a...
biological anthropology had been considerably changed from beginning to now. from 19th to mid-20th century, the race has been the principal concept in bio-anthropologic researches. since mid-20th, the concept of race replaced with the new subjects. the second half of 20th century can be counted as the transition period for bio-anthropology. the three last decades of 20th century are the decades...
Previously we (Vonk and Shackelford, 2012, in press) proposed an integration of comparative psychology and evolutionary psychology into a new field of "comparative evolutionary psychology." This integrative discipline incorporates principles from ethology, ecology, biology, anthropology, and psychology, broadly defined. We present in this special issue a collection of original empirical and the...
