Neandertaler, Denisovianer und weitere, noch unbekannte Vettern der Gattung Homo haben sich offenbar mit unseren Vorfahren gepaart und so zu unserem Genom beigetragen. Und auch unsere jüngere evolutionäre Vergangenheit hat markante Spuren in unseren Genen hinterlassen.

The Latin term for the female genitalia, pudendum, means “parts for which you should be ashamed”. Until 1651, ovaries were called female testicles. The fallopian tubes are named for a man. Named, claimed, and shamed: Welcome to the story of the female body, as penned by men. Today, a new generation of (mostly) women scientists is finally redrawing the map. With modern tools and fresh perspectives, they’re looking at the organs traditionally bound up in reproduction—the uterus, ovaries, vagina—and seeing within them a new biology of change and resilience.
