This work was made possible by the efforts of a multinational scientific network:
* Peru: Instituto Nacional de Salud Peru,
* Brazil: Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais,
* United States: University of Maryland

And the trajectory of the effective population growth in Limaβthe Peruvian capitalβcaptures recent rural-to-urban migration. (4/6)
We inferred that most continental admixture events occurred before 8 generations ago and were followed by internal migration patterns aligned with the North-South continuum. (3/6)
We found that the population structure of urban Peruvians mirrors a north-south gradient seen in Indigenous groupsβdriven by high proportions of Indigenous American ancestry. A legacy of deep roots, still visible today in urban regions. (2/6)
A new chapter of the Peruvian Genome Project is out!
We explored the genetic composition and dynamics of individuals living in urban areas. We analyze genome-wide data from 432 urban individuals across 13 regions of Peru, including 346 newly genotyped! (1/6)
