Nature cover

Had an honour to create a drawing for “Nature” journal cover: ‘A genetic improvisation on a world map’. Thank you Mait Metspalu, Luca Pagani, Kelly Krause and others for trust.

Nature is a British interdisciplinary scientific journal, first published on 4 November 1869.[1] It was ranked the world’s most cited scientific journal by the Science Edition of the 2010 Journal Citation Reports. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nature_(journal)

Three international collaborations reporting in this issue of Nature describe 787 high-quality genomes from individuals from geographically diverse populations. David Reich and colleagues analysed whole-genome sequences of 300 individuals from 142 populations.
