The Ashkenazi Jewish (AJ) population is a genetic isolate close to European and Middle
Eastern groups, with genetic diversity patterns conducive to disease mapping. Here we report …

Consumer genomics databases have reached the scale of millions of individuals. Recently,
law enforcement authorities have exploited some of these databases to identify suspects via …

We report genome-wide data from 33 Ashkenazi Jews (AJ), dated to the 14 th century, obtained
following a salvage excavation at the medieval Jewish cemetery of Erfurt, Germany. The …

We report genome-wide DNA data for 73 individuals from five archaeological sites across
the Bronze and Iron Ages Southern Levant. These individuals, who share the "Canaanite" …

Human gut microbiome composition is shaped by multiple factors but the relative contribution
of host genetics remains elusive. Here we examine genotype and microbiome data from …

We study a map of the Internet (at the autonomous systems level), by introducing and using
the method of k-shell decomposition and the methods of percolation theory and fractal …

The increasing proportion of variance in human complex traits explained by polygenic
scores, along with progress in preimplantation genetic diagnosis, suggests the possibility of …

The genome of Trypanosoma brucei, the causative agent of African trypanosomiasis, was
published five years ago, yet identification of all genes and their transcripts remains to be …

Crohn’s disease (CD), a form of inflammatory bowel disease, has a higher prevalence in
Ashkenazi Jewish than in non-Jewish European populations. To define the role of …

We derive an analytical expression for the critical infection rate rc of the susceptible-infectious-susceptible
(SIS) disease spreading model on random networks. To obtain rc, we first …
