scientist: It been shocking to watch news of the Brexit vote in Britain, Donald Trump promise to build a wall between Mexico and the U.S. and the ongoing threats and violence against ethnic minorities in many parts of the world, according to Rabble. I'm not a political or social scientist, but my training as a biologist gives me some insight. Chip in to keep stories like these coming. When I began my career as a scientist, geneticists were starting to analyze the molecular properties of single genes within a species. Examining one kind of protein controlled by a specific gene, we expected to find them all pretty much the same. When we started looking at highly evolved species such as fruit flies, we thought we would find that their genes had been honed through selection over time, so they would be relatively homogeneous within single species.
