The Irish DNA Atlas: providing a map of Irish genetics in and out of Ireland
Genetic data from a population can help to contextualise historical records and evidence of that population’s history, provide evidence of that population’s size and the existence of communities within it, and inform us about the genetic legacy of past mixing of other populations resulting from migration. The Irish DNA Atlas is a DNA cohort of individuals with regional Irish ancestry; participants provide genealogical data on their eight great-grandparents who were born in the same region of Ireland along with genetic data. The project has successfully elucidated the genetic landscape of Ireland and provided an invaluable reference database of Irish genetics which has enabled national and international studies of Irish ancestry which has migrated from the island, covering Scotland, Iceland, Scandinavia and, most recently, Newfoundland and Labrador. These studies together provide important insights into the genetic legacy of a millennium and beyond of Irish diaspora, shedding light on history and identity.
Dr Edmund Gilbert is a Lecturer in the School of Pharmacy and Biomolecular Sciences and researcher in the FutureNeuro SFI Research Centre at the Royal College of Surgeons of Ireland, Dublin. His research is focused on understanding the genetic footprints of human history.
Thank you for making this public.
Incredibly informative. Thanks so much for posting. A real public service. So well presented.
My dad is celtic Silures from ennis ireland ❤😊i was born in Ireland too my mom white south african dad Irish and am happy this was here to" let Irish know" who they are Ennis county claire ❤🇮🇪☘️.
Hope you come to present in Newfoundland and Labrador. Great talk.
My Irish ancestors came to Australia. Cheers mate
Mine came to America
@@acedagame6531 Same here.
There was plenty of free transport available…
Mine came to England 😅
@@mareegeorge8641 Mine did first too because it was closer
Excellent. Thanks for posting.
My Irish ancestor to America is Hubert Ferrell 1645-1676 , he was from county Longford
Tank you for sharing this. I look forward to watching., its a subject/information that I've been waiting for ... .

Oh dear, massive blank spaces in the sampling from Scotland. It appears Wigtownshire, Dumfriesshire, and Roxburghshire is under represented. Much of Plantation settlement in Ireland originated from those areas.
Has any work on the Irish, English and Scottish in Australia been done in a similar way to that of Newfoundland?
Many of my autosomal DNA cousin matches show that their Scottish Stewart ancestors also migrated first to Donegal and the migrated t America or Counties Antrim and Down. I also have a very high amount of Scandinavian and European DNA that does not match my paper trail, so I am wondering is this ancient DNA migration at work.
I'm descended from Scottish royalty; the story for us goes something like "the tribe of Hercules was scattered to the wind by the Huns and they became the royal houses of Europe." Scythia was completely overrun. Hercules was a Danite Hebrew named Samson... and we migrated to Ireland to be with the rest of the Tuatha de Danann.... AKA the tribe of Dan. What other predominately pork free pastoral culture do you think the Irish came from?
Well whatever...they couldn't possibly be as royal as you there, McCLellan. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@washerdryer3466 Oh yea, 3,000 years later my tribe still goes "Hercules, Hercules, Hercules" lol if you were descended from someone that tore a lion in half and killed a 1000 men you'd be the same way :)
Did you sample any Irish emigrant communities scattered around the world?
Ironic that RCSI hosts the subject of genetics and is silent on the subject of genocide.
...while collaborating with the "chosen ones".
What about the Saxons (German)?
the Anglo-Saxon dna is very similar to modern day Danes and Dutch because they came from Denmark, Netherlands and the very northern part of Germany (northern German dna reads as Danish) but anyway they were Germanic tribes it cant be translated to Germans ,Germans are also Germanic , however everything north of the Roman Empire was called Germania
Ango saxons English dna
How much did continental celts influence Irish DNA?
Ceots not a race hun a culture whi came from Middle East settled in anatolia and moved around Europe Spain Portugal France I the irish are from Spain and Portugal look up irish dna Newgrange
Sorry meant celts not a race
Fashion from Middle East
They barely did at all. it's a non-starter. The Irish genome is mostly Bronze Age in origin.
My last name before adoption was bailey
It would be interesting to know to what degree Ulster Catholics also may share this Scottish ancestry.
All Irish and Scottish people descend from Bronze Age bell beakers
asking the wrong question,irish and highland scots are the same people,lowland scots are a different people not very different but distinct nonetheless therefore the question is how much mixing there was between lowland scots who came over in the plantations.
The Bronze Age Rathlin Island Man genomes suggest his people's ancestral journey arrived in Northern Ireland from Scotland. With his ancestors arriving in Britain via coastal routes and waterways by making the journey through Doggerland, Denmark, Norway, Finland and originally the Baltic region.
Most of these Bell Beaker people arrived in from Holland and travelled quite quickly up the east coast of Britain and as far west as Stranraer and the western Isles, then crossing over to Ulster. The Picts (Pechts) are descended from these people.
The previous neolithic people had coastal communities between the north part of Ireland and Western Isles of Scotland. The Ulster - Scottish link is very ancient and they left the monuments to prove it.
I'm 16 percent Highland Scottish and 50 percent Irish, plus Swedish and Norwegian where did that come from 😮
I'm sout african, and my oldest traceable ancestor was Irish. 😂 I have no idea how true or accurate that is. But interesting, nonetheless 🎉
The Spanish were wrecked on the Irish coast but that was much later, 16th century AD, need to go back to 1200 BC.
Nope look up newgrange irish dna
Half way through and can't get to the point.
Suggestion 4 presenter, please slow your speech down, to flow past the ums & errrs. Thank you. Caro
He ignores the Mesolithic Hunter gather ppulation which was permanent for 3000 yrs.
This study is on the Irish today. Most Irish today descend from the Bronze Age Bell Beakers as there was a huge population replacement. Irish today don't descend from the Irish HGs nor the Irish farmer population. There are papers you can read about Irish HGs and the Farmers along with the Bell Beakers. Lara Cassidy has papers on these populations.
V@@jackieblue1267I know. Ive read a lot about it.
@@jackieblue1267 The Neolithic DNA still exists ibn some areas all be it a small minority.
nothing new here
big scam
