Natural selection is still at work in humans, study finds

Humans aren't quite done evolving, a dramatic new study has found. Researchers analyzing genetic and health data on hundreds of thousands of people, uncovered evidence to suggest natural selection has an ongoing, albeit small, effect on modern humans. The new study appears to be favour larger, 'hunkier' men with a greater body mass index, and younger mothers. A new study found that natural selection appears to favour women who get a young start on having a family. Researchers examined data from the UK Biobank, looking at genetic variants and their correlation to the number of children people had.
