But beneath its frozen surface lies a complex history of human migration, isolation, and adaptation. Their findings not only rewrite the history of Inuit migration but also challenge the Eurocentric lens of modern genetics and medicine. “Genetics is increasingly important for diagnosis, risk assessment, and treatment of disease.

However, this new genomic study, led by Francesco Ravasini and colleagues, reconstructs the biological history of the Picenes using DNA extracted from 102 ancient individuals spanning over 1,000 years of history. Green gradients show the hypothesized origins of individuals with diverse ancestries in the Central Italic IA.
