Nicholas Wade (born 17 May 1942) is a British-born US journalist and author of numerous books who has been staff writer and editor for Nature, Science, and the science section of The New York Times.[1]
Wade's 2014 book "A Troublesome Inheritance: Genes, Race and Human History" was widely denounced by the scientific community for misrepresenting research into human population genetics.[2]
In May 2021, Nicholas Wade published an article which advanced the claim that COVID-19 originated from a leak at the Wuhan Institute of Virology.[3] This claim is at odds with the current scientific consensus that the virus most likely has a zoonotic origin.[4]
