In 2010 an international genomic research project entitled "Complete Khoisan and Bantu genomes from southern Africa" was published in Nature amidst wide publicity (Schuster et al 2010). The research aimed to examine the genetic structure of "indigenous hunter-gatherer peoples" selected from Namibia, and to compare the results with "Bantu from southern Africa" , including Nobel peace prize winner Archbishop Desmond Tutu. Four San individuals, the eldest in their respective communities, were chosen for genome sequencing, and the published article analysed many aspects of the correlations, differences and relationships found in the single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs)
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
