Allan Wilson was a prominent evolutionary biologist known for his work in molecular evolution and genetics. He is best known for his research on mitochondrial DNA, which provided evidence for the "Out of Africa" theory of human evolution, suggesting that modern humans originated in Africa and migrated to other parts of the world. His work helped to illuminate the genetic relationships between different human populations and the timing of human migrations. Additionally, Wilson contributed to the understanding of evolution through the study of molecular clocks and the rates of genetic change.
