Principal components analysis corrects for stratification in genome-wide association studies

TL;DR: This work describes a method that enables explicit detection and correction of population stratification on a genome-wide scale and uses principal components analysis to explicitly model ancestry differences between cases and controls.
Journal ArticleDOI

Population structure and eigenanalysis

TL;DR: An approach to studying population structure (principal components analysis) is discussed that was first applied to genetic data by Cavalli-Sforza and colleagues, and results from modern statistics are used to develop formal significance tests for population differentiation.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Draft Sequence of the Neandertal Genome

TL;DR: The genomic data suggest that Neandertals mixed with modern human ancestors some 120,000 years ago, leaving traces of Ne andertal DNA in contemporary humans, suggesting that gene flow from Neand Bertals into the ancestors of non-Africans occurred before the divergence of Eurasian groups from each other.
