This project focuses on generating genomic data for bonobos and chimpanzees to understand human evolution better. It aims to analyze gene expression variations and phenotypic traits in these primates, contributing to insights about the genetic differences that shape human characteristics.
Humans have two closest living relatives: the well known chimpanzee (Pan troglodytes) and the lesser known bonobo (Pan paniscus).
While the lineage leading to humans and the lineage leading to bonobos and chimpanzees split five to seven million years ago, the bonobo and chimpanzee lineages split around one million years ago.
Despite such a recent divergence, these two ape species exhibit remarkable phenotypic differences, indicating that inferences about human evolution will require comparative…
