Are Neanderthals closer to West Africans than Europeans? Were the ANE a mix of European and Native American ancestry? No and no, but why do some PCAs show things like this? Find out in part 7 in my popgen video series. I'm covering Drift, PCs, projection G25 and more!

FST tells us that at most 15% of the information about someone's genome is explained by population structure, so how do PCA's distinguish populations with FST << 0.15? What is the relationship between FST and "variance explained" in PCA? Both answer and more in popgen video #8

How does one tell if some population A is closer to population B or C? The f4-statistic has you covered! In the 9th part of my popgen and aDNA methods series, we cover the basic intuition behind an f4-statistic and how it can be used to learn about relatedness and history.

Genetic data is often on the order of 1-million-Dimensional. How on earth does one visualize this? PCA! In my sixth popgen / ancient DNA video, I give a (very) high level intuition for what PCAs are doing and how we can use them to reduce them dimensions of genetic data

Part 4 in my population genetics video continuing on FST. In this video I give examples of why you should think of FST as differentiability, not distance, then relate it to heterozygosity and variance before giving an intuition of what an FST of, for example, 0.03 means
