    • ‘Most recent common ancestor’ of all living humans
    surprisingly recent

    New Haven, Conn. — In this week’s issue of Nature, a Yale mathematician presents
    models showing that the most recent person who was a direct ancestor of all humans
    currently alive may have lived just a few thousand years ago.


    “While we may not all be ‘brothers,’ the models suggest we are all hundredth cousins or so,” said Joseph T. Chang, professor in the Department of Statistics at Yale University and senior author on the paper.
