<p><b>Transhuman</b>, or <b>trans-human</b>, is the concept of an intermediary form between <a href="Human" title="Human">human</a> and <a href="Posthuman#Transhumanism" title="Posthuman">posthuman</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-World_Transhumanist_Association_2002-2005_1-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-World_Transhumanist_Association_2002-2005-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In other words, a transhuman is a being that resembles a human in most respects but who has powers and abilities beyond those of standard humans. These abilities might include improved intelligence, awareness, strength, and/or durability. Transhumans <a href="Transhumanism_in_fiction" title="Transhumanism in fiction">appear in science-fiction</a>, sometimes as <a href="Cyborg" title="Cyborg">cyborgs</a> or <a href="Genetic_enhancement" class="mw-redirect" title="Genetic enhancement">genetically-enhanced humans</a>.

<p>In March 2007, American physicist <a href="Gregory_Cochran" title="Gregory Cochran">Gregory Cochran</a> and <a href="Paleoanthropology" title="Paleoanthropology">paleoanthropologist</a> <a href="John_D._Hawks" title="John D. Hawks">John Hawks</a> published a study, alongside other recent research on which it builds, which amounts to a radical reappraisal of traditional views, which tended to assume that humans have reached an evolutionary endpoint. Physical anthropologist Jeffrey McKee argued the new findings of accelerated evolution bear out predictions he made in a 2000 book <i>The Riddled Chain</i>. Based on computer models, he argued that evolution should speed up as a population grows because population growth creates more opportunities for new <a href="Mutation" title="Mutation">mutations</a>; and the expanded population occupies new environmental niches, which would drive evolution in new directions. Whatever the implications of the recent findings, McKee concludes that they highlight a ubiquitous point about evolution: "every species is a transitional species".<sup id="cite_ref-World_Science_12-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-World_Science-12"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>12<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
