> About IndoAryan

## Our Mission

IndoAryan is dedicated to exploring and understanding the genetic heritage of Indo-European populations through advanced computational analysis. We leverage cutting-edge tools like qPAdm to model population admixture and trace the complex history of human migrations.

## Research Focus

Our primary research centers on analyzing Steppe ancestry and its spread across South Asia during the Bronze Age. By examining genetic data from various populations, we aim to:

  • Model admixture patterns in Indo-Aryan populations
  • Trace the genetic contributions from ancestral sources
  • Connect genetic evidence with archaeological and linguistic data
  • Provide accessible tutorials for population genetics analysis

## Methodology

We employ qPAdm (quantitative admixture analysis) as our primary tool for modeling population admixture. This method allows us to:

  • Test specific admixture models with defined source populations
  • Calculate admixture proportions with statistical confidence
  • Evaluate model fit using various statistical measures
  • Compare different historical scenarios quantitatively

## Get Involved

Whether you're a researcher, student, or enthusiast interested in population genetics, we welcome you to explore our research and tutorials. Check out our blog for detailed analyses and step-by-step guides on using qPAdm for your own research.
