Show Notes

Ann Gauger discusses the common claim that humans and chimpanzees share 99% of their DNA. This figure is outdated and that scientists now acknowledge the similarity is less than previously reported. Newer research points to greater differences. Key Topics Gauger challenges the widely reported 99% similarity between human and chimpanzee genomes, explaining that more comprehensive analyses reveal greater genetic differences. Dr. Gauger provides clear explanations of genetic terminology and sequencing methods to help listeners understand the complexities behind genome comparisons. Summary of episode via Perplexity.ai.
