Tissues from millions of Americans are used in research without their knowledge. These "clinical biospecimens" are leftovers from blood tests, biopsies and surgeries. If your identity is removed, scientists don't have to ask your permission to use them. How people feel about this varies depending on everything from their relationship to their DNA to how they define life and death. Many bioethicists aren't bothered by the research being done with those samples - without it we wouldn't have some of our most important medical advances. What concerns them is that people don't know they're participating, or have a choice. This may be about to change.

    3. Usually FTDNA, 23andMe and GEDmatch are in pretty close agreement. It appears AncestryDNA uses a somewhat different set of algorithms to analyze exactly the same DNA data and get different results. For me, I use FTDNA and 23andMe results first; GEDmatch results second; and only use the AncestryDNA results that are uploaded to FTDNA and/or GEDmatch. The AncestryDNA segment data is interesting in a general way, but I would not rely on it too heavily.

    2. Lindsey Britton via
    3. I have a member who transferred from Ancestry last month. Although his DNA results have finally been posted in his account and are now showing in the Results' Table for the Britton Project, he doesn't have a match list. His preferences are set to display all matches and receive e-mail notification of new matches. Any idea what we need to do to get his matches? Lindsey

Cassidya,1, Rui Martinianoa,1, Eileen M. Murphyb, Matthew D. Teasdalea, James Malloryb, Barrie Hartwellb, and Daniel G. Bradleya,2 Author Affiliations Edited by Montgomery Slatkin, University of California, Berkeley, CA, and approved November 18, 2015 (received for review September 18, 2015) Significance Modern Europe has been shaped by two episodes in prehistory, the advent of agriculture and later metallurgy. These innovations brought not only massive cultural change but also, in certain parts of the continent, a change in genetic structure. The manner in which these transitions affected the islands of Ireland and Britain on the northwestern edge of the continent remains the subject of debate. The first ancient whole genomes from Ireland, including two at high coverage, demonstrate that large-scale genetic shifts accompanied both transitions. *We also observe a strong signal of continuity between modern day Irish populations and the Bronze Age individuals, one of whom is a carrier for the C282Y hemochromatosis mutation, which has its highest frequencies in Ireland today.* Abstract The Neolithic and Bronze Age transitions were profound cultural shifts catalyzed in parts of Europe by migrations, first of early farmers from the Near East and then Bronze Age herders from the Pontic Steppe. *However, a decades-long, unresolved controversy is whether population change or cultural adoption occurred at the Atlantic edge, within the British Isles. We address this issue by using the first whole genome data from prehistoric Irish individuals. * A Neolithic woman (3343–3020 cal BC) from a megalithic burial (10.3× coverage) possessed a genome of predominantly Near Eastern origin. She had some hunter–gatherer ancestry but belonged to a population of large effective size, suggesting a substantial influx of early farmers to the island. Three Bronze Age individuals from Rathlin Island (2026–1534 cal BC), including one high coverage (10.5×) genome, showed substantial Steppe genetic heritage indicating that the European population upheavals of the third millennium manifested all of the way from southern Siberia to the western ocean. This turnover invites the possibility of accompanying introduction of Indo-European, perhaps early Celtic, language. *Irish Bronze Age haplotypic similarity is strongest within modern Irish, Scottish, and Welsh populations, and several important genetic variants that today show maximal or very high frequencies in Ireland appear at this horizon. These include those coding for lactase persistence, blue eye color, Y chromosome R1b haplotypes, and the hemochromatosis C282Y allele; to our knowledge, the first detection of a known Mendelian disease variant in prehistory. These findings together suggest the establishment of central attributes of the Irish genome 4,000 y ago.* ancient DNA genomics population genetics Footnotes 1L.M.C. and R.M. contributed equally to this work. 2To whom correspondence should be addressed.

    3. In a somewhat different direction: /Where/ does AncestryDNA display the cM and number of matching segment information?? I can't find it anywhere on my matches' profile!

    3. Click on any one of your matches (View Match), then look for the "i" to the right of the green confidence bar. Click on the "i" and it will display the amount of shared centiMorgans and number of shared segments.
