Genetic Variation in African Populations: A Multi-Locus Approach to Understanding Selection and Demography in Humans

Mutation, recombination, selection, and demographic processes (such as gene flow and genetic drift) have shaped genetic variation, but the relative impact of these evolutionary forces remains poorly understood. This problem motivates this study which examines three regions of the genome -beta-glob...
