Thank you very much for writing. I'm curious about your comment concerning the readability of the font, because I care very much that they be readable for the largest fraction of people, including disabled/screen readers and mobile devices.

An easily solution for font issues is to view the site using a feed reader such as Google Reader, allowing you to easily customize and follow on multiple devices. Here is the feed link:

Neandertals

For years, I've worked on their bones. Now I'm working on their genes. Read more about the science studying these ancient people.

Malapa

Just outside Johannesburg, the Malapa site is producing some of the most exciting finds in human evolution. This site is the headquarters of the Malapa Soft Tissue Project.
