Abstract
Summary of the research findings
The Ashkenazi Jewish (AJ) population is a genetic isolate close to European and Middle Eastern groups, with genetic diversity patterns conducive to disease mapping. Previous studies have suggested that the population originated from a small number of founders in the Middle Ages, but their geographic origins are still debated.
