This paper introduces RAS, a statistical method for analyzing rare variants to detect population structure with higher resolution than common variants, and demonstrates its improved accuracy in ancestry proportion estimation.

This study analyzes ancient DNA from the South Caucasus over 5000 years, showing genetic continuity despite high mobility and admixture from Anatolia, the steppe, and southern populations.

Poseidon provides a framework for managing archaeogenetic data to ensure FAIR principles through open, interoperable tools and archives.

The paper analyzes ancient genomes from Tiwanaku to show genetic homogeneity in the Lake Titicaca Basin over 1200 years but genetic diversity in ritual core individuals, suggesting foreign influence.

The paper introduces nf-core/eager, a Nextflow pipeline for ancient genome reconstruction, focusing on accessibility, reproducibility, and adaptability to modern practices.

The paper analyzes ancient genomes from Finland and Northwest Russia to show Siberian ancestry in northern Europe dates back 3,500 years and influenced modern Uralic-speaking populations.

The paper analyzes ancient and present-day genome-wide data to show widespread Paleo-Eskimo ancestry among Na-Dene and Eskimo-Aleut language speakers and presents a model for North America's peopling.
