Brief summary
This study aims at better understanding the genetic structure of the Armenians, an old population whose genetics has not been the subject of many studies. We will study 500 individuals whom grandparents originate from different regions of Armenia. Each individual will be genotyped using a large panel of genetic markers. Principal component analysis will be used to analyze the genetic structure of this population.
