Inference of population structure from ancient DNA

Update: This paper has now been published at RECOMB 2018. “Inference of population structure from ancient DNA” by Tyler A. Joseph and Itsik Pe’er. https://doi.org/10.1101/261131 I selected this article for review for a few reasons: Inference of populaton structure is of fundamental interest Abundance of ancient DNA samples have increased; the data is challenging and has complexities I wanted to get an update on the state-of-the-art in the field in this space This paper focuses on tackling the problem of inference of structure in ancient DNA. »
