How modern life is transforming the human skeleton

A story on BBC News about how modern life is transforming the human skeleton interviews Noreen von Cramon-Taubadel about her research to find out if it was possible to tell where an individual was from by looking at the shape of their skulls. The article notes, “It soon became clear that instead of being determined by genetics, the shape of the jaw was mostly affected by whether that person had grown up in a hunter-gatherer society, or a community that relied on farming."
