Ok, obviously you know more about France, its medical practice and its laws and regulations than me (despite me being a doctor in said France, being born and raised in that country, and working in a university pediatric hospital where DNA testing is routinely made, and me being also involved in...

I was talking about France specifically, sorry if i wasn't clear. And no, not all DNA tests are banned: as long as they're justified for medical care or research, they're perfectly fine and are actually widely done (and i happen to prescribe some of them myself). It's just tests like 23andme's...

I don't understand the need to try to explain LP with convoluted population migration theories when it's obvious that it's a huge selective advantage. Like LeBrok said, milk is an endless concentrated energy source, available at all times provided there is a mid-sized or a large mammal around...

I'm using Firefox, so i guess it's a security package issue. Gonna try with another browser. I've never heard of any blocking of this kind of website. Genetic testing without informed consent (i.e. you can't be tested for a genetic disease without your written consent) is illegal, and...

Hello, Is it just me or is 23andme's website unreachable for other people too? I've been trying to connect for a few days now and i always get a message saying there might be something wrong on their side, but website monitoring tools seem to indicate that it's up. Are you guys having the same...

All i know is that according to GEDmatch, i always end up clustered very close to West Germans (3.41) and South Dutchs (4.3), and much much farther (almost twice as far according to the least square method) from French (7.78) per se. This is probably because most of my family comes from the...

Let's also take into account that these 64 people have admixtures of their own. Let's say you're 98% Blue and 2% Red. In Saldimaria's example, out of your 64 ancestors, there would have been 63 Blues and 1 Red. But there can also have been, say 20 people who were 30% Red and 70% Blue, and 44...

Thank you for this ht35 map! When looking for R1b haplotype in Western Europe, you usually find ht15 maps, but not ht35, so this one is very useful. Thanks to the others for the insight on Anatolian history, it's very interesting.

I won't post the Speculative ones since these only have 50% confidence threshold, whereas Standard has 75% and Conservative has 90%. Standard: 99.2% European - 18.3% French/German - 0.9% British/Irish - 44.8% nonspecific Northern European - 1.2% nonspecific Southern European - 34% nonspecific...

Eurogenes might be a mere internet blog, the guy behind it happens to know stuff about population genetics, biostatistics and results interpretation. Just because it's a DIY project doesn't mean it has no value. As its author explains somewhere in said blog, the Ashkenazi population is in...

It's because T. Brown was given a myelic transplantation from a donor who was naturally immune to HIV (thanks to a mutation present in 1-15% of Europeans). His entire immune system (including HIV-infected cells) being replaced by a naturally resistant one, the virus disappeared from his system...

What's the "noise threshold" in myOrigins admixtures? I've heard that in Gedmatch and 23andme, percentages below 1% were uninterpretable, but i might be wrong. For example, here's numbers from my myOrigins admixture (can't post pictures, not enough postcount): - North Circumpolar: 2% -...

I've had my genome tested by 23andme last year (autosomal + mtDNA + Y-DNA) and am considering offering testing kits to some of my family members who also interested in personal genomics. However, i have a few questions. I've transferred my results over to FTDNA but they only processed the...

You're obviously stuck on your opinion, which is supported by absolutely no argument other than your own belief. You can't simply post similar maps about totally different topics and draw conclusions. I'm sorry, but you can post as many of these as you want, it won't make your point more valid...
